Abstract
Based on the measurements of light scattering functions in different regions of Lake Baikal in summer 1979, the characteristics of suspended matter in surface waters are calculated, including the mass and number concentrations of particles of suspended matter and its different fractions. From this data, the relationships with Secchi Disk are derived. The formula for the relationship between the mass concentration of suspended matter and the Secchi Disk for Lake Baikal is compared with similar formulas for marine waters.
