Impact of a water–sediment regulation scheme on the hydrodynamics and sediment conditions in the Sheyang Estuary

Suspended particulate matter concentration in response to tidal hydrodynamics in a long mesotidal floodway

“…Typically, most of the suspended material deposits at slacks, and resuspension with flood velocities are limited at neap tide. Wang et al (2019) reported that water-sediment regulation schemes can change the tidal asymmetry and sediment transport. After the construction of channel regulation mechanisms in the Changjiang Estuary, the high-SSC area was enlarged and moved offshore.…”
