Based on previous research/study, with definite physical concepts and the point of view that there is the same amount of sediment exchange between bed load within suspended load and riverbed sediment, a formula of concentration of sediment near the bottom of a river was derived in this paper. Then, the formula of near-bed-concentration of suspended sediment was derived by the author through basic differential equations of vertical distribution of suspended load. It could be validated by
