Abstract
Key problem for studying river bed evolution of the Changjiang Estuary is the mechanism of sediment transport. This paper, based on an analysis of remotely sensed data, presents the principles of spatial distribution and variation of surface suspended sediment concentration in the Changjiang Estuary, as well as their relation to the vertical distribution of sediment concentration, which provides a scientific basis for the regulation of deepwater navigation channel in the Changjiang Estuary.
