In September 2020, we collected field samples of sand-mud mixtures from the Western Scheldt and at Noordpolderzijl. The collected samples cover a wide range of densities and sand-mud percentages. This is illustrated in the figure below, which is included in the internship report of Jelmer Korteling.

The first phase of laboratory experiments (phase 1A) is almost finished. This phase includes erosion experiments in flumes and using Eromes experiments. The report describing these experiments is going to be finalised in spring 2021.
In the second phase of laboratory experiments (phase 1B), erosion experiments will be carried out for combined forcing by waves and currents.
