Abstract

This research aims to determine the amount of sediment (sediment-rate) that occurs on the channel point to review and to provide an overview and explanation of the value of the correlation coefficient (R) is based on the relationship between sediment discharges (QS) with water discharge (QW). This Research is conducted by measuring directly on location with measuring the water level in each cross section of the channel and water sampling to test concentrations in the sediment. The results of research showed that the rate of sediment on the Primary Channel of Sanrego is 4.253 kg/day, Secondary Channel of Batu-Batu is 0.0593 kg/day, Tertiary Channel of Palakka 1 is 0.0403 kg/day, Palakka Tertiary Channel 2 is 0.0155 kg/day, Tertiary Channel of Batu-Batu 1 is 0.000578 kg/day, Tertiary Channel of Batu-Batu 2 is 0.0199 kg/day, with an average correlation coefficient (R) of 0.960, it shows the relationship between sediment discharge (QS) with water discharge (QW) has a positive direct perfect connection, which is between 0.6 < R <1.0. While on the secondary channel Palakka of 1.218 kg/day, with a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.210, this shows the relationship of sediment discharge (QS) and water discharge (QW) has a direct positive relationship is weak, that is between 0 < R < 0.6.
