On définit le TSS comme toute matière solide retenue sur un papier filtre à pores de 1,5 micron après filtration de l'échantillon et séchage à l'étuve. Le filtre peut laisser passer des petites particules colloïdales. [...] le rapport final d'évaluation des effets de l'exploitation minière sur le milieu aquatique au Canada (AQUAMIN) [...] définit un grand nombre de paramètres de caractérisation utiles comme traceurs dans les effluents ou comme agents modifiant la toxicité des effluents. À noter que le paramètre «matières totales en suspension» (MTS) d'AQUAMIN est l'équivalent du «total des solides en suspension» (TSS) utilisé dans le présent document et dans le REMM proposé. 1, record 1, French, - total%20des%20solides%20en%20suspension
