        abstract = {The study investigates the correlation between turbidity (NTU) measured by SEN0189 sensor with Arduino Uno microcontroller and the mass of filtered sediments (mg) measured from the same water samples collected during summer, pre-monsoon, and monsoon seasons at TJ College, Pune (Maharashtra, India). Hourly samples (10:00hrs–15:00hrs) were analyzed to evaluate the sensor’s reliability for sediment estimation. Results revealed a strong linear relationship (R² = 0.92) between NTU and sediment mass, with seasonal variations influenced by rainfall and temperature. The findings support the use of low-cost turbidity sensors for rapid sediment monitoring in aquatic systems.},
