  abstract = {{T}his study aims at exploring the characteristic parameters of the {E}stuarine {T}urbidity {M}axima ({ETM}) and at investigating their tidal variations within the {C}am-{N}am {T}rieu estuary ({N}orth {V}ietnam) during the early wet season. {S}ix longitudinal river transects were performed at spring tide. {T}wo types of {ETM} were observed: an upper well mixed {ETM} with high {S}uspended {P}articulate {M}atter ({SPM}) concentrations up to the surface at low salinity (0.11 to <1 psu), and a lower {ETM} confined in a bottom layer over stratified waters at salinities between similar to 1 psu and 15 psu. {T}heir length depended on the longitudinal salinity gradient and was highest at low tide than at high tide. {D}-50 of the flocs varied between 35 and 90 m, their excess of density between 60 and 300 kg m(-3) and their settling velocity ranged from 0.07 to 0.55 mm s(-1) with values between 0.12 and 0.40 mm s(-1) in the core of {ETM}s. {T}he average fractal dimension of flocs was estimated to vary between 1.93 (at high tide) to 2.04 (at low tide).},
