The definition of the threshold of sediment motion is critical for continental shelf sediment
dynamics. The work by A. Shields laid the foundation for this research direction, leading to …

Intertidal ecosystems are threatened by sea level rise and anthropogenic pressures.
Understanding the processes controlling the morphodynamic developments of tidal flats is …

Hydrodynamic processes play a crucial role in driving the transmission of sediments, likely
harboring diverse microbes and heterogeneous organic carbon (OC) in the ocean. Here we …

Wave-induced liquefaction is a geological hazard under the action of cyclic wave load on
seabed. Liquefaction influences the suspended sediment concentration (SSC), which is …

Accurate estimations for the bed shear stress are essential to predict the erosion and
deposition processes in estuaries and coasts. This study used high-frequency in situ …

Understanding erosion and accretion dynamics during an entire tidal cycle is important for
assessing their impacts on the habitats of biological communities and the long‐term …

The prediction of the erosion of mudflats is hampered by inaccurate estimates of the
erodibility distribution of the sediment bed. To investigate how erodibility varies in space and …

Biofilm mediated intertidal sediments exhibit more complex erosional behaviour than abiotic
systems. A major feature of intertidal systems is the exposure to repeated cycles of high and …

Frequency changes in intense typhoons are of great concern to modern society. However,
current understanding of the influence of climate on typhoon activity on the millennial scale …

Short-term bed-level variability in tidal wetlands has important implication both for ecology
and engineering. In this study, we combined in situ measurements with model simulations to …
