Integration of an Analytical Model for Shelf Sediment Deposition into SedFlux

Abstract

The global objective of the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS) involvement in the STRATAFORM program is to improve understanding of the spatially and temporally varying mechanisms that suspend, transport, and deposit sediment specifically on the continental shelf in the vicinity of the mouth of the Eel River and generally on continental shelves that are accumulating fine sediment.
