Abstract
Yangtzi River is the largest river in China.It brings 4.245×108 ton soil and sands into the ocean each year,which greatly influences the suspended sediment concentration(SSC) in the area of Yangtzi River estuary and continental shelf area of East Chinese Sea.Remote sensing technology is one of useful methods to monitor the SSC in the surface water.In this sea area,there is a good relativity between surface water SSC and vertical average SSC.In this article,the author uses MODIS data to reverse the SSC in the area around the Yangtzi River estuary and analyzes the characteristic of its distribution and movement as well as the influence to peripheral sea.
