Velocity and concentration profiles of saline and turbidity currents flowing in a straight channel under quasi-uniform conditions
We present a series of detailed experimental observations of saline and turbidity currents flowing in a straight channel. Experiments are performed by continuously feeding the channel with a dense mixture until a quasi-steady configuration is obtained. The flume, 12 m long, is characterized by a con...
