Abstract:
A method for determining in situ and in real time at least one suspended sediment property in a medium, the suspended sediment comprising a mineral and an organic fraction. The method comprises the steps of (a) measuring light absorbance with a submersible ultraviolet-visible spectrometer, the ultraviolet-visible spectrometer being configured to analyse to analyse light absorbance at wavelengths which are comprised between 220 nm and 730 nm and of (b) correlating the light absorbance to the properties of the suspended sediment, in various instances by using the Beer-Lambert's law. The method is remarkable in that the step (b) is performed by using one model calibrated for deriving the properties of the suspended sediment from the light absorbance.

Claim (Index 18):
The method according to  claim 16 , wherein the model has been calibrated from at least one predictor variable obtained through ex situ physico-chemical analysis of the suspended sediment or theoretically, the step of calibration being performed at least one of at least once before the step (a) and at least once after the step (a).
