Satellite observations of sediment transport patterns in the Lac Saint-Pierre region of the St. Lawrence River / by J.E. Bruton, J.H. Jerome and R.P. Bukata.: En13-5/88-87E-PDF

"Satellite data from Landsats 4 and 5 were utilized to delineate the seasonal variations of sediment transport zones in the Lac Saint-Pierre region of the St. Lawrence River corridor. A seasonally cyclic succession of patterns displaying persistent, mutually independent, and extensive (in both space and time) turbidity zones was clearly in evidence. Visible and thermal data in both imagery and digital formats were used to show the close relationships existing among the distinct zonal synoptic patterns, the bathymetry of lake and river, and the near surface aquatic temperatures"--Abstract.
