Simultaneous satellite and ship-borne surveys have been conducted to investigate the dispersion patterns of dredging plumes off the south coast of Korea in two contrasting seasons (spring and autumn). The distribution of total suspended solid (TSS) derived from sequential satellite imagery showed that the dredging plumes in spring developed over longer distances along the surface current than those in autumn. In spring, the deep and strong stratified condition in the water column contributed to the increase in radius of plume dispersion along the water surface. In autumn, the shallow and vertically well-mixed (or un-stratified) condition in the water column enhanced |
