All members of the university community are invited to the following seminar:
Title: Turbidity in Estuaries
Speaker: Manuel Díez Minguito
Affiliation: Environmental Fluid Dynamics Group, TEP 209
Date: December 11, 2015
Time: 13:00
Location: Conference Room, Andalusian Institute for Earth System Research (IISTA), Avda. del Mediterráneo S/N
Virtual Room: http://avvideoconf.uco.es/hidraulica
Abstract: The seminar will delve into the topic of turbidity in estuaries, exploring its significance, causes, and implications for environmental dynamics. Turbidity, often associated with suspended sediment particles, is a critical parameter influencing water quality, ecological processes, and human activities in estuarine ecosystems. The speaker will discuss factors contributing to turbidity variations, such as sediment resuspension, nutrient loading, and anthropogenic influences. Additionally, the seminar will address methodologies for measuring and monitoring turbidity levels and their role in understanding estuarine dynamics and ecosystem health.
