Cohesive sediment research - a database of projects in the UK, Belgium, France and Japan (SR 233)

Hydraulics Research (HR) and the Department of the Environment (DoE) have jointly funded research with the objective of HR collaborating with University and Polytechnic researchers in the field of cohesive sediments. To ensure that HR were fully aware of on-going and recent past research on cohesive sediments in the UK, a database of projects vas collated and published ln March 1989 (HR Report SR217). A request for information of projects was then sent during 1989 to researchers in Belgium, France, USA, Japan and Holland with the assistance of Dr Reg Parker (USA and Japan) and Professor Brian O’Connor (Holland). In addition, the UK researchers were requested to up-date their information in late 1989. This report comprises the completed questionnaire forms received from researchers in the UK, Belgium, France and Japan together with summary lists of the projects. Unfortunately, no replies were obtained from the USA or Holland
