Fluid Mud in Energetic Systems: FLUMES II

Abstract

The goal of this research is to develop greater understanding of the dynamics of fluid mud and its role in the transport and deposition of sediment in coastal environments and on the continental margin. In particular, we seek greater understanding of the processes that influence the formation and maintenance of fluid mud in energetic environments.
