Abstract

The spread of siltation and the growth of suspended water materials in reservoirs such as artificial lakes are among the most common problems in the world. To monitor and detect this problem, some researchers used classical methods of taking water samples, although this method requires spending a lot of time and money. It is worth noting that in this study we used a new technology via the Landsat-8 satellite to monitor the seasonal spread of suspended water components on the surface of Lake Dukan between the years (2015-2020). For this purpose, the Surface Algae Bloom Index , known as (SABI), was applied. This study also attempted to determine the relationship between the amount of rain and temperature with the amount of suspended matter at different depth levels. Considering the results of the study via the satellite used, we concluded that the time and amount of suspended matter spread varies according to the seasons of the year. Therefore, the amount of suspended matter increases in the summer months and reaches (-0.8) due to the lack of rainfall, while in the winter the amount of suspended matter decreases to (0) Due to increased rainfall.
