✦ Synopsis

The contribution of dissolved salts and/or sediment particles in altering the fluid density cannot be neglected in studying density stratified flows. In this paper equations are presented to evaluate the density of water as a function of temperature, salt content, and sediment load. A nomograph based on these equations is constructed. The nomograph is applied to estimating the density variations of the Shapur River, a sediment-laden stratified river in Southern Iran. It is illustrated that sediment gives rise to large peaks in density of the river. Such variations are known to be an important factor in geomorphology.
