  abstract = {{I}n shallow environments, particle resuspension can induce large ecological effects. {U}nder some certain conditions of fetch, wind velocity, bathymetry and bed roughness, resuspension is generated by wind induced waves. {D}uring {D}ecember 1991, a shallow station (1 m depth) in the north shore of a tropical lagoon ({C}{\^o}te d'{I}voire) was investigated in order to study the impact of wind induced resuspension on the ecosystem. {I}n this area, {A}ustral trade winds are dominant almost all year long, and their velocity shows a marked diel pattern. {D}uring the survey, three sequences were distinguished : a period of {A}ustral trade winds (with possible resuspension), a period of {B}orela trade winds. {O}nly {A}ustral trade winds with a speed > 3 m s-1 allowed particle resuspension. {F}or chlorophyll, mineral seston and ammonia, significantly higher values were noted during the windy sequences. {C}onductivity and water colour varied in relation to tides. {G}ranulometric and mineralogical analyses showed that only the 0-3 cm superficial level of the sediment was involved in resuspension.
