Abstract
Consecutive Landsat images of a red clay turbidity plume due to runoff from Nemadji River, Wisconsin, are used in computation of the horizontal eddy diffusivity for Lake Superior. Dispersion of turbid areas ranging from 2.5-5.4 km in diameter and having average velocities of 0.4 cm/sec-6.1 cm/sec are investigated. The coefficient for horizontal eddy diffusivity ranges from 0.6-1.5 m 2/sec.
