The impact of mobile disarticulated shells of Cerastoderma edulis on the abrasion of a cohesive substrate
An annular laboratory flume was used to investigate the effect of mobile cockle shells on the erosion of a cohesive sediment bed. A standard clay bed was created and shells of differing sizes placed upon it. Flow in the flume was increased in increments and the onset of motion and transport pattern...
