The observation of lake currents and waves indicated that the dynamic sources, which act on the interface of water and sediment, came mainly from waves under strong wind forcing, while the critical shear stresses due to the waves and currents were of the same magnitude under weak wind forcing. The critical shear stress that leads to extensive sediment resuspension was about 0.03-0.04N/m2, equivalent to a wind speed in situ up to 4 m/s. If a dynamic intensity exceeded the critical shear stress, such as a wind velocity up to 6.5 m/s, massive sediment re-suspension would be observed in the lake. Furthermore, field investigations revealed that the nutrient concentration of pore water within the sediment was far greater than that of overlaying water, which provides objective conditions for the nutrient release from sediment. According to nutrient analyses in the pore water from the superficial 5-10 cm sediments, a severe dynamic process in the Taihu Lake would bring out a peak nutrient release, i.e. a 0.12 mg/L increase of TN, and 0.005mg/L increase of TP in the lake.
