Abstract

The total suspended solid (TSS) dispersion model was based on the principle of conservation of mass. The model was used to study the TSS concentration fields in the immediate vicinity of the rivers mouth and in the Upper Gulf of Thailand. The verification had been done by comparing the predicted diffusion patterns with the satellite image. There was 10 cruises survey in the Upper Gulf of Thailand by Kasetsart 1. Total suspended solid were analyzed by the gravimetric method. The comparison of the TSS dispersion pattern between the observed TSS dispersion and the simulated result was quite similar. It appeared that it might be possible to obtain TSS information in the Upper Gulf of Thailand by using the TSS dispersion model.
