Abstract
The mechanism of sediment resuspension transport by wind driven current in a shallow lake was studied by means of a turbulence model where a shear stress by wave motion and a fall velocity of sediment described by a flocculation were included. The flow mechanism and the sediment concentration profiles depend on the aspect ration, and its tendency is similar to that in the field and experiment.Also the shear stress due to wave motion and the change of fall velocity due to a flocculation can not significantly affect the vertical profiles of sediment concentration.
