Abstract
Laboratory-based studies related to isolation and quantification of sediment and their properties which influence the spectral reflectance of sediment-laden waters were made. Some of these including the effects of sediment concentration, size variation, salinity, etc. have been published elsewhere. Using spectral reflectance measurements, properties of various soil types in a suspension can be inferred. The identification of dominant soil types present in a runoff water may help in the characterisation of the type of catchment area. The source of sediment load carried by the runoffs may also be predicted for future confirmation through the ground and geological surveys. Predictive models for evaluating soil properties alongwith steps to identify the dominant soil type(s) in a suspension are also presented.
