Zusammenfassung:	This technical note describes the particle entrainment simulator (PES), which is used at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) for experimental determination of erodibility of fine-grained cohesive sediments. The device, its method of operation, experimental data reduction, and application of PES results to studies related to estuarine and coastal sediment transport problems are briefly described.
