To investigate how erodibility varies in space and what the vertical distribution over the sediment depth is, comprehensive observations of the sediment properties, hydrodynamics and bed-level changes were conducted on an intertidal flat in the Western Scheldt Estuary, the Netherlands. The erosion potential on a mudflat is determined by the critical shear stress for erosion (<em>τ</em><sub><em>e</em></sub>), erosion rate coefficient (<em>M</em>) and local hydrodynamic conditions. A clear difference in hydrodynamic forcing was observed, leading to significant bed level variations at the low water line, where erosion often occurs during very shallow water condition, and a nearly constant bed level at the upper part. The erosion parameters <em>τ</em><sub><em>e</em></sub> and <em>M</em> could be determined over a sediment bed of 12 cm at the low water line. The erosion coefficient <em>M</em> can be considered constant with depth, although there is a large spreading. A clear vertical variation of <em>τ</em><sub><em>e</em></sub> was found: <em>τ</em><sub><em>e</em></sub> increased significantly downward from 0.10 Pa at the sediment surface to 1.13 Pa at 12 cm below the surface. Additionally, there was a strong indication that the presence of diatoms enhanced <em>τ</em><sub><em>e</em></sub> in the upper 2 mm of sediment by five times of the abiotic <em>τ</em><sub><em>e</em></sub> (from 0.09 Pa to 0.46 Pa). These findings lead to the following improvement for predicting morphological changes of tidal mudflats: (1) very shallow conditions should be better simulated, (2) the vertical distribution of <em>τ</em><sub><em>e</em></sub> should be considered. Otherwise, erosion rates can be overestimated, especially during extreme events, because exposure of the deeper well-consolidated layer likely occurs; and (3) an appropriate description of the effect of diatoms should be considered as part of the bottom boundary condition.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"The heterogeneity of mudflat erodibility","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-04-19 01:32:02.204041","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+02:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Erosion threshold; In situ measurement; Mudflat; Diatoms; Erosion rate; Storm","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2019,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2020-01-13","DateCreate":"2019-11-21","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000503319500003","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":0,"DOI":"10.1016/j.geomorph.2019.106834"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":318136,"PubliDate":2019,"Pagination":"106834","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"345","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":45973,"SerRR":"Geomorphology.
