Data for: Suspended sediment fluxes in a shallow macrotidal estuary

Timeseries of water level, tidal velocity, backscatter, suspended sediment concentration, and sediment flux derived from acoustic doppler current profilers. Sediment fluxes calculated according to Dyer decomposition equation and Yu et al. (2012) analytical model.

Two deployments in 2013: February and September.

Two locations in the estuary: Site 1 near the mouth of the river (48° 16.842’ N, 004° 16.009’ W), and Site 3 in the central estuary (48° 14.851’ N, 004° 10.140’ W).

本数据集包含由声学多普勒流速剖面仪（acoustic doppler current profilers）获取的水位、潮流流速、反向散射强度、悬浮泥沙浓度与泥沙输运通量时间序列数据。泥沙输运通量依据戴尔分解方程（Dyer decomposition equation）及Yu等人（2012）提出的解析模型计算得到。
2013年共开展两次野外布放作业，作业时段分别为2月与9月。
研究区域位于河口，共设置两个采样点位：点位1临近河口口门（北纬48°16.842’，西经004°16.009’），点位3位于河口中部（北纬48°14.851’，西经004°10.140’）。
