Sediment variability in intermittently extracted sandbanks in the Belgian part of the North Sea by Lars Kint, Florian Barette, Koen Degrendele, Marc Roche, Vera Van Lancker

“…Intermittent but intensive sand extraction took place from 2012 to 2019 on the Oosthinder, and since 2019 on the Noordhinder.Methods: To better understand sediment variability during human-induced disturbance of the seabed, both sandbanks have been monitored using multibeam bathymetry and backscatter, and Reineck box cores on board of the Research Vessel Belgica A962. Acoustic and sediment data were preferably jointly collected within a one-week period to substantiate the interrelationships.Result: Very well-sorted medium sands with low backscatter values (−28 to −33 dB) are detected near the top of the sandbank, while (moderately) well-sorted coarser sands and shell fragments with high backscatter values (−20 to −24 dB) are detected in the deeper parts of the sandbank slope. …”
