The Channeling (Microventing) Phenomenon in Young Marine Sediments

Abstract

The long-term goal is to understand, evaluate, and quantify physical processes involved in the erosion, deposition, and transport of sediments. This involves short-term and long-term effects, and characterization of those effects based on sediment source and fluid mechanics. The outcome of this work will be a deeper understanding of the processes involved, and further development of predictive capabilities.
