It would help, and the water is his friend definitely, but Hulk still punches harder than he can, and Aquaman isn't afraid to go h2h. The trident will give him some momentum, but putting Hulk down is still going to be the issue, and Hulk can adapt to breathe underwater.

I think it would take more than that...

Hulk's thunderclaps have been ridiculously powerful. Shockwaves from Hulk in general have been powerful as one would expect. The power behind them varies but that goes hand in hand with Hulk's power set.
If he's pissed? A thunderclap would take Arthur out. It'd be on a level where Superman/Thor types would be better off avoiding it somehow.

I know how powerful they are. I just know Arthur is pretty durable, and I don't see an "average" thunderclap taking him out.
Obviously the angrier ones do more damage.

Hulk's normal t-claps are powerful enough. Underwater, they're explicitly far more powerful.
And Aquaman has taken shots from Wonder Woman and Jonn. Not saying he'll be unaffected, but it should take more than that to put him down, especially with the strength and durability push Johns has been giving him.

I'm not disputing that Arthur's really tough for his tier. But a t-clap underwater is one of the worse things he could hope to deal with from Hulk. Anyone would be hard pressed to deal with it, really.
I'm just saying I don't think it would be a match-winner in and of itself, is all.
^Hulk's body and it's ability to adapt to forces was further explored later on. Savage Hulk might have had to hold his breathe but not anymore:

Pretty sure even Grey Hulk doesn't need air anymore.

A thunderclap from an angry Hulk > Getting hit by either Wonder Woman or John.
And magnified underwater? Aquaman is a dead man. Even Wonder Woman and John would need to get the hell away from that blast.

Aquaman is durable, but as far as Hulk is concerned, he is not anything noteworthy.
I have no doubt Aquaman has some decent high end feats but the thunderclaps are not without their own showings.
Finishes off off Ironclad/Orgress (Both more durable than Aquaman):

Takes out Hyperion (A lot more durable than Aquaman):

Someone have scans of when he crippled Gladiator with a clap to the head, stunned the Avengers including Hercules and knocked out Xemnu with a force described to me more powerful than any hurricane in history?
Wish I had my scans with me, even these I have to borrow (Thanks to John).
This isn't even taking into account the fact that it would be magnified underwater.
