The investigation results on vertical and horizontal structures of turbulence generated by a vibrating lattice both in clear water and a suspension are presented. Near the lattice, a horizontal periodic structure of the liquid vibrations of a jet nature has been revealed. With distance from the vibrating lattice, the liquid's reciprocating motion gets damped, and, other things being equal, the velocity (dispersion) values in the suspension are lower than in clear water. This is attributed to the perturbation energy absorption by solid particles and their precipitation rate decrease.
