Entrainment of seafloor sediment. (a) Entrainment thresholds of three grain sizes of 10, 63, and 153 μm of non-cohesive sediment (horizontal lines) and one grain size of 10 μm of cohesive sediment⁶⁰ (dashed horizontal line) and shear stresses (circles) induced by waves (U_*w), currents (U_*c), and wave-current interaction (U_*cw); Temporal variability of the distribution of volume concentration in the water column of grain sizes (b) >153 μm; (c) 63–153 μm; (d) 10–63 μm; and (e) <10 μm from March 17–18 at Sta. M1.
