“…The HCL has been found in laboratory experiments (Dohmen Janssen et al, 2001;Yao et al, 2015) and field observations (Te Slaa et al, 2013). Some literature (Kineke et al, 1996;Trowbridge and Kineke, 1994) defines high concentration at the elevation where the concentration c = 10 kg/m 3 , or c = 21 kg/m 3 by Winterwerp (1999). Lamb and Parsons (2005) defined the thickness of the high concentrated mud layer as the elevation where the concentration c = 0.1c bed (where c bed is arbitrarily set at 1,400 g/l).…”

“…In muddy environments, the role of bottom mud state in determining the hydrodynamic dissipation remains unclear. For example, one of the key findings resulted from AMASSEDS (e.g., Nittrouer et al 1991) indicates significant reduction of bottom drag coefficient as tidal currents propagate over muddy seabed (Beardsley et al 1995) due to damping of turbulence via sediment-induced density stratification (Kineke et al 1994). On the other hand, field and analytical studies on wave propagation over muddy seabed (e.g., Sheremet & Stone 2003;Elgar & Raubenheimer 2008) report significantly increased energy dissipation due to the presence of bottom fluid mud.…”

“…This includes, for example, evaluation of suspended sediment concentration profiles (e.g. Kineke and Sternberg, 1989;; influence of high concentrations of suspended sediment on boundary layer flows (Friederichs and Friederichs et al, 2000;Wright et al, 2001), fluid mud formation on the continental shelf Kineke and Sternberg, 1995;Kineke et al, 1996;Sternberg et al, 1996;Ogston et al, 2000;Traykovski et al, 2000), biological mediation of threshold of grain motion (Nowell et al, 1981;Wright et al, 1997) and boundary layer processes (Drake et al, 1992). Studies of boundary layer flows and associated sediment transport dynamics represent the means by which marine scientists have improved our ability to link physical process to sediment response, predict the impact of various physical factors on coastal seas (e.g.…”
