Study on the Coastal Suspended Sediment Transport Based on Multi-Source Satellite Remote Sensing Imagery

Abstract:

Based on a series of multi-source satellite remote sensing imageries and wind parameters extracted from QuickSCAT satellite datasets, the surface suspended sediment concentrations (SSC) of the Zhuanghe coastal area, China was investigated using the retrieval technique. The results showed that the SSC of the Zhuanghe coastal area is higher in the nearshore zone, and gradually diminishes to the offshore. During the ebbing process, the range of high SSC zone is wider than that during the flooding process. This feature indicated that the suspended sediment transport is mainly determined by the ebb currents, and the sediment source comes from the nearshore shallow flats, where the sediments could be entrained by the wind waves and then diffuses offshore or alongshore with the tidal currents.
