Dredge Monitoring

The process of dredging inevitably can give rise to plumes of high sediment concentration, which potentially creates a range of environmental issues and problems. We have developed a range of monitoring approaches to help our clients effectively monitor dredge plumes, including:

  • 3D plume mapping, using the commercial ADCP-Sediview method
  • Depth profiling using autonomous turbidity sensors
  • Real-time monitoring buoys for turbidity compliance monitoring
  • Time-integrating and time-series sediment traps for sediment quality investigations
