Dutch tidal flats

Sedimentary Geology, 1977
Abstract Physiographic elements and their sediments of the tidal-flat environment are given both from the classical Wadden Sea in the northern part of The Netherlands and from the estuarial areas in the southwest. Sedimentary processes are briefly mentioned.

Evolution of tidal flats in China and ecological exploitation of tidal flat resources

Environmental Earth Sciences, 2012
Tidal flats play a tremendous role for solving the problem of land use because of the crisis of population increments. Many coastal countries have carried out reclamation projects near seas in various degrees for a long time. China currently has about 2.13 million hm2 of tidal flats that are mainly scattered in the delta plains and coastal regions near

Tidal flat areas

1988
Tidal flat areas are parts of estuaries without macrophyte growth which emerge at low tide, excluding beaches which differ from tidal flats by the dominance of surf. Macrophytes mostly form the high tide and tidal creeks the low tide boundary.

Tidal Flats

1972
Abstract Tidal flats are built in a marine shallow water environment in a specific vertical sequence intersected by runnels and channels. Bidirectional current marks, subaerial features, and horizons of bioturbation complete the environmental indicators.

Tidal Channels on Tidal Flats and Marshes

2011
In shallow coastal settings channels provide a pathway for the tide to propagate and are, thus, a primary control on the sedimentation and ecology of these environments. Being shaped by bidirectional flows, tidal channels exhibit morphologies, which, despite apparent similarities, bear significant and fundamental differences to fluvial channels ...

Tidal Flats: ABSTRACT

AAPG Bulletin, 1969
Tidal flats are built of marine sediments intersected by runnels and channels in a specific vertical sequence. Bidirectional current marks and subaerial features complete the environmental indicators. Sediments in the intertidal zone lie between high- and low-water line across a vertical distance of 1-4 m or more, depending on the tidal range.
