Continuous Flow Sediment Trap

A Continuous Flow Sediment Trap is a device used to collect sediment from water bodies like rivers and lakes. It works by letting water flow through while capturing particles and debris that settle at the bottom. This helps researchers analyze sediment composition and monitor environmental changes over time. By continuously sampling, these traps provide valuable data on sediment transport, erosion, and ecosystem health, aiding in water management and conservation efforts. They are important tools in understanding how sediments impact aquatic habitats and overall water quality.
