Evolution of particle size in turbid discharge plumes

Abstract

The goals of this research are to develop greater understanding of the fate of fine sediment delivered to the continental shelf by the Eel River during floods and to refine methods for interpreting quantitatively the environmental record stored in grain size distributions of fine sediments on the shelf.
