“…Studying sediment erosion and deposition in the field dates up to 1960s when Scoffin [48] and Peirce [49] , respectively, developed the sink applied to field conditions. Young and Southard [50] first applied the sink(SEAFLUME) to the study of the sediment starting.…”

The background and principle of the annular flume technology were introduced. A complete literature review of the research progress by using the annular flume in China and other countries was presented including annular flume numerical simulation, experiments on the scene etc. On the basis of the existing progress, the potential application prospects of annular flume technology in the study of cohesive sediment characteristics are summarized briefly.

“…Muddy tidal estuaries generally experience very high concentration suspensions of fine sediments due to various physical processes. Marine scientists have been interested in fine sediment processes that are tide-induced (Postma & Kalle 1955;Inglis & Allen 1957;van Straaten & Kuenen 1957, 1958van Straaten 1961;Pierce & Williams 1966;McCave 1969McCave , 1970Pierce et al 1970;Buller 1975;Buller et al 1975;Allen et al 1980;Kirby & Parker 1977, 1982, 1983Nichols 1984Nichols -1985Kirby 1987Kirby , 1988Kirby , 2010Shi 1991Shi , 2004Shi , 2010Amos et al 1992;Schoellhamer 1995;Dong et al 1997;Bass et al 2002;Fettweis & Van den Eynde 2003;Cook et al 2007) and wave-forced (e.g. Anderson 1972;Maa & Mehta 1987;Foda et al 1993;Mehta 1996;De Wit & Krannenburg 1997;Wai et al 2001;Zhao et al 2006;Shi et al 2008;van Prooijen & Winterwerp 2010).…”

Hangzhou Bay is a typical funnel-shaped high turbid estuary along a mesotidal coast of the East China Sea. In this paper, field studies are undertaken in an attempt to better understand tide-induced fine sediment transport processes in the Bay. Field observations were made mainly of current velocities (speeds and directions) and suspended sediment concentrations at six different relative depths and two stations in September 1992. Results show that (1) high near-bed suspended sediment concentrations varied from 1·81 to 4·00 kg m−3 during the spring tide and from 1·04 to 8·00 kg m−3 during the neap tide; (2) tide-induced near-bed fine sediment resuspension processes are indicated by several periodic suspended sediment concentration peaks; and (3) a hysteresis effect, or suspension-lag, occurs in suspended sediment concentration and resuspension events. Tide-induced fine sediment processes are mainly responsible for very high concentration suspensions of fine sediments in Hangzhou Bay. The occurrence of the suspension-lag phenomenon is likely to be common in other similar muddy tidal environments.

“…Tests have been conducted in situ and ex situ, and researchers have compared effects of compaction, clay/sand proportions, clay type, organic content, pH, salinity, flora and fauna, and various other chemical and compositional parameters. In general, in situ flumes may be subdivided into two groups: (1) benthic re-circulating flumes (Amos et al, 1992;Black and Cramp, 1995;Houwing and van Rijn, 1998;Maa et al, 1993;Pierce et al, 1970;Widdows et al, 1998) and benthic straight flow-through flumes (Aberle et al, 2003;Gust and Morris, 1989;Ravens and Gschwend, 1999;Young, 1977), and (2) miscellaneous devices (Paterson, 1989;Schünemann and Kühl, 1993).…”
