Lobe-Cleft Instabilities on a river plume front
(2016-05-12)These data accompany a paper submitted to Geophysical Research Letters. The abstract is below. Gravity currents represent a broad class of geophysical flows including turbidity currents, powder avalanches, pyroclastic ... -
Wave generation of gravity-driven sediment flows on a predominantly sandy seabed
(2018)Wave-supported gravity flows (WSGF) generate rates of sediment flux far exceeding other cross-shelf transport processes, contributing disproportionately to shelf morphology and net cross-shelf fluxes of sediment in many ... -
Wave-Supported Gravity Currents Project: Experimental data from UW Sediment-Wave tank. Zero slope
(2015-03-01)Paper abstract: We present results from laboratory experiments in a wave flume with and without a sediment bed to investigate the turbulent structure and sediment dynamics of wave-supported mud layers. The presence of ...
