Abstract :
Results of the modelling of the vertical distribution of suspended sediment concentration under the influence of waves with a pronounced group structure are presented in this paper. The reliability of the model has been checked against laboratory data from the SISTEX´99 experiment. Fluctuations of suspended sediment concentration, calculated by the model, correlate very well with the experimental data and reproduce the form, number and duration of concentration peaks rather well.
