Research on the Coastal Suspended Sediment Movement of Matakong Island in Guinea, Africa Based on Remote Sensing Data

Abstract:

A wide range of suspended sediment concentration can be obtained by satellite remote sensing. According to the multi-temporal remote sensing data and quasi-simultaneously surface sediment concentration data, research works on the surface suspended sediment distribution and movement trends of Matakong coastal area, Africa were carried out. The results showed that the suspended sediment concentration of the studied area is not large, and the sediment movement is not active. The sediment source comes from the nearshore shallow flats, where they could be entrained by the wind waves and then diffuses by the tidal currents.
