Todd, D., Souza, A. and Jago, C. (2015) Seasonal variations in SPM and floc characteristics in a hypertidal estuary. In: INTERCOH 2015 (13th International Conference on Cohesive Sediment Transport Processes), 7-11 September 2015, Leuven, Belgium.
The Dee Estuary is a hypertidal coastal plain estuary, formed by the flooding of the river valley cut by the River Dee during the last major glaciation. One of three major estuaries emptying into Liverpool Bay along with the Ribble and Mersey it is located at the junction of north-east Wales and north-west England, on the eastern side of the Irish Sea.
The physical characteristics of the Dee make it
an ideal location for studying turbulence-sediment
interactions and flocculation: It has a large tidal prism,
high tidal range, and abundant cohesive sediment.
