Abstract
Based on the field observations and laboratory analysis data of the suspended sediment of Wendeng coastal area, this paper studied the change process of suspended sediment concentration and characteristics of surface sediment resuspension in the study area. In results: (1) In vertical, the suspended sediment concentration of each station increased gradually from surface to bottom, and the maximum value could reach 0.11 kg/m3; (2) Suspended sediment concentration is well correlated with velocity variation in a tidal cycle, and the peak of suspended sediment concentration occurs four times in a tidal cycle, indicating that there are four resuspension processes during a tidal cycle in the study area; (3) According to the suspended sediment concentration at different times and the content of the previous time, the maximum settlement is between 0.063~0.092kg/m3, and the maximum resuspension is between 0.057~0.125kg/m3 in the study area.
