Transport of Gas and Solutes in Permeable Estuarine Sediments

Abstract

The long-term goals are 1) to assess the role of small gas bubbles in shallow sandy coastal sediment for sediment geotechnical properties, the transport of solutes across the sediment-water interface and the biogeochemical processes in the sediment surface layer 2) to develop and apply an acoustic technique for the detection and quantification of small gas bubbles in sandy sediment at a high spatial resolution.
