LISSTDIEC
LISSTDIEC is a cutting-edge technology developed by Sequoia Scientific, Inc. It stands for Laser In Situ Scattering and Transmissometry Device for Inland, Estuarine, and Coastal waters. The device is designed to provide real-time, in situ measurements of particle size distribution in aquatic environments. LISSTDIEC uses laser diffraction to scatter light from particles in the water column, allowing for the calculation of particle size distribution. This technology is particularly useful for monitoring sediment transport, water quality, and ecological health in rivers, lakes, and coastal areas. The device is compact, portable, and can be deployed from various platforms, including boats, buoys, and autonomous underwater vehicles. LISSTDIEC has been widely adopted in scientific research, environmental monitoring, and industrial applications, providing valuable data for understanding and managing aquatic ecosystems.
