The intertidal sediments

Jacobsen, N. Kingo: The intertidal sediments. Geografisk Tidsskrift 86: 46–62. Copenhagen, June 1986. Cost 647 Intertidal sedimentary subgroup: Long termed studies of ecological and physical parameters especially within the Danish Wadden Sea. The following items have been dealt with: 1) baseline studies concerning zoo-biology (1980–85) and some physical factors (1983/85). 2) Studies in the Ho Bugt area as such dealing with the bottom sediments and the suspended matter. Further studies of the landscape elements, the sediments, and the dynamics have been dealt with through remote sensing. The working group settled the importance of the local physical parametres co-ordinated with the benthic base-line studies. Further the long termed trends in hydrology and climatology were emphazised. The fundamental object of the project is to obtain data on those scales of natural, temporal variability which is attributable to climatic/hydrographic factors. As to the discussion of the sediments it is in this relation essential to relate the character of the sediments to the dynamics of the environment
