Abstract

Detailed observations of near-bottom turbidity and currents are used to examine the relationship between bottom shear stress and sediment resuspension. Turbidity is related to the statistical frequency distribution of bottom shear stress in a way that implies that a few high-stress events may be responsible for resuspension. Such short-period processes will usually be masked by conventional methods of data handling.
