La salinité de l'eau, qui influence la floculation des particules donc leur temps de redéposition, ainsi que la température de l'eau et les courants de densité, qui créent une stratification verticale de l'écoulement en milieu estuarien et marin, sont également des paramètres qui influencent la dispersion des sédiments.
