Improvement of Operations and Maintenance Techniques. Near-Bed Optical Backscatter Sensor and Vector-Measuring Velocity Meter Calibration

Abstract

This report summarizes the procedures used to calibrate a Vector-Measuring Velocity Meter and an Optical Backscatter Turbidity Meter. Descriptions of facilities used in these calibration procedures are given, but they in no way limit the possibility of using other similar type facilities. Sensor thresholds and sensing limits are given to ensure accurate data collection.
