Erodibility of natural sediments: experiments on sand/mud mixtures from laboratory and field erosion tests

P Le Hir, P Cann, B Waeles, H Jestin… - Proceedings in Marine …, 2008 - Elsevier
Natural sediments are often mixtures of cohesive and non-cohesive sediment, and there are
few data on the specific behaviour of these sediments, in particular, their erodibility. After a …
