Field Measurements of Sediment Transport Processes in STRATAFORM: Extended Duration Observations

Abstract

The long-term goal is to increase our understanding of the role of physical forcing mechanisms and associated sediment response that contribute to the formation of fine scale strata and cross-margin transport of suspended particulates on the Eel River continental margin.
