Winter storms induced high suspended sediment concentration along the north offshore seabed of the Changjiang estuary

Fine-grained sediments suspended in coastal waters play an important role in submarine topography evolution and associated environment changes. The convergence of suspended sediments concentrated near the seabed results in high sediment concentration, and contributes significantly to sediment transport. In order to investigate the mechanism triggering high suspended sediment concentration (SSC), we deployed a tripod to the seabed to obtain in...
