This researcher is measuring turbidity in a glacial lake using a Secchi disk. The disk is lowered into the water until it can no longer be seen, and the depth of disappearance is recorded. Photo provided by Monica Bruckner. turbidity tube, or T-tube, can be used as an alternative to lowering a Secchi disk through the water column. The T-tube is a plastic tube with a small-scale Secchi disk pattern at its base. Water samples can be poured into the tube and the clarity of the bottom disk can be used to reveal turbidity.
