- •
Near-bed velocities and sediment concentration were measured on a tidal flat.
- •
Pulses in velocity occurred in the channels as water levels passed tidal flat level.
- •
Shear stress and turbulence peaked in phase with velocity.
- •
Sediment concentration peaks were correlated poorly with local shear stress.
- •
Smaller stress and no velocity pulse occurred during 2 days of elevated water level.
