Abstract
Combined with the equilibrium condition, the formula of vertical average sediment concentration has been derived from the vertical two-dimensional suspended sediment diffusion equation. Based on analyzing and comparing two hydrodynamic formulas, a new formula of sediment carrying capacity has been deduced. Some river and inshore sediment data has been collected to validate the formula and find that the new formula has higher accuracy and applicability comparing with the two hydrodynamic formulas, it shows that the new formula has a high application value.
