Turbidity is the cloudiness that is sometimes seen in water. It is caused by very small particles of clay, silt or organic material in the water. To say water is highly turbid means it is very cloudy. Turbidity is measured either in the lab by measuring how much light is decreased as it passes through a water sample or in the field by dropping a Secchi disk into the water and measuring how far down it can be seen.

What does it mean when water has low turbidity?
turbulent flow- is when a fluid say in a stream becomes non-streamline, water currents stop being parallel and begin to move in random directions this makes it so sediments are eroded faster and stay suspended longer a turbidity current- is a kind of density current (it is denser than the surrounding water due to the suspended sediments) the moves down slope along the bottom of a body of water (ocean or lake) generally generated by short term catastrophic events (land slides, earthquakes, volcanoes,) a turbidite- is a sedimentary structure made by a turbidity current: there are two kinds high-density currents (lots of sediments greater than about 25% grains) which form think turbidite successions of sand and gravel (these are poorly graded and generally poorly sorted); and low-density flows tend to present the Bouma sequence in defined beds and laminations didn't sign in for the first time...

What does turbidity mean?
Turbidity refers to the cloudiness or haziness of a liquid caused by suspended particles that are not easily visible to the naked eye. These particles can include sediment, microorganisms, or other substances that can affect water quality. Turbidity is often used as an indicator of water quality and can impact the effectiveness of water treatment processes.
