Turbidity is a measure of water clarity in streams, rivers, lakes, and the ocean. Turbidity describes the. amount of light scattered or blocked by suspended particles in a water sample. Clear water has low. turbidity and cloudy or murky water has a higher turbidity level.
Turbidity is a measure of the relative clarity of water: the greater the turbidity, the murkier the water. Turbidity increases as a result of suspended solids in the water that reduce the transmission of light. Suspended solids are varied, ranging from clay, silt and plankton, to industrial wastes and sewage. With higher levels of turbidity, water loses its ability to support a diversity of aquatic organisms. Water becomes warmer as suspended particles absorb heat from the sunlight and cause oxygen levels to fall.
