Abstract: A new dataset of co-located 2C velocity, sediment concentration and sediment flux profile measurements collected with an Acoustic Concentration and Velocity Profiler (ACVP), are presented in this paper. The experimental protocol developed herein is described in details. The first results are displayed in terms of mean velocity, concentration and sediment flux profiles. The validity of the logarithmic velocity profile and the Rouse concentration profile for the suspension load are analyzed. The effect of the Shields and suspension numbers on the solid transport mode is discussed. The flow quantities and turbulent transport processes to be analyzed with this new High-Resolution dataset and the corresponding questions to be addressed are raised in the conclusion.
