Turbulent diffusion modelling of sediment in turbidity currents: An experimental validation of the Rouse approach

Abstract The margins of submarine channels are characterized by deposits that fine away from the channel thalweg. This grain‐size trend is thought to reflect upward fining trends in the currents that formed the channels. This assumption enables reconstruction of turbidity currents from the geologic...
