Abstract
ABSTRACT The dispersion of suspended matter discharged into Lake Geneva from the Rhone River was traced out into the lake using high frequency echo-sounding and in situ turbidity profiles. A layer of high turbidity was located over the thermoclinc (10-30 m depth). This layer provided a reflecting horizon, which could be traced by echosounding to a distance of 7 km from the river mouth. The turbidity profiles enabled an initial reconstruction of the geometry of the turbid plume and the approximate concentration of entrained particles.
