Abstract:Suspended sediment particles (SSPs) act as a potential source of and sink for aquatic pollution. This study sampled six sites in Poyang Lake in August and November 2019. Changes in the physicochemical properties of SSPs were analyzed using scanning electron microscope energy-dispersive spectrometry (SEM-EDS). The results showed that SSPs consisted mainly of clay and chalk, with an average content of 39.71% and 57.52%, respectively. The average particle size distribution of SSPs in the study area ranged from 5.… Show more
