The purpose of this note is to establish a background that can be used for subsequent Dredging Research Program (DRP) development of criteria for defining the limiting depth for safe navigation in areas of fluid mud and as rational means of characterizing fluid mud deposits that affect navigation. Establishing a navigable depth criterion will require evaluation of mud characteristics and terminology not widely applied within the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. A subsequent technical note will use viscosity as a key element in the analysis of frictional effects on vessels operating with no underkeel clearance in fluid mud areas.
