摘要
Wind-induced resuspension of bottom sediment was measured with sediment traps in Sand Lake National Wildlife Refuge, South Dakota. Resuspension was significantly greater in open water areas than in areas protected from wind by emergent vegetation. Resuspended sediment was apparently uniformly distributed through the water column.
