The behaviour of suspended sediment in rivers is often a function of energy conditions, i.e. sediment is stored at low ยฏow and transported under high discharge conditions. The timing of maximum sediment transport can, however, also be related to mixing and routing of water and sediment from dierent
## Abstract A 9โyear sediment transport monitoring programme on the Niger River was used to study the relationship between suspended sediment concentration and river discharge. During annual floods, this relationship shows the hysteresis normally observed on tropical rivers. This paper presents an
