The Role of Particle Size and Concentration in Defining the Flow Structure of Turbidity Currents and the Morphology of their Deposits: Insights from Computed Tomography
Turbidity currents are turbulent particle suspensions that are the primary mechanism for transporting terrestrial sediments to the deep marine, and generate some of the largest depositional features on Earth. However the fluid-particle interactions that sustain these currents are poorly understood,...
