On a mis au point certains instruments et développé des méthodes d'échantillonnage, afin d'obtenir des estimations précises de la charge solide en suspension. [...] L'échantillonneur intégrateur ponctuel est abaissé dans l'eau à un point particulier et la bouteille de l'instrument se remplit à ce point. La concentration en sédiments de l'échantillon représente la concentration moyenne dans le temps à ce point dans l'écoulement.
