Flow‐process controls on grain type distribution in an experimental turbidity current deposit: Implications for detrital signal preservation and microplastic distribution in submarine fans

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, 2021
Deep‐water depositional systems are the ultimate sink for vast quantities of terrigenous sediment, organic carbon and anthropogenic pollutants, forming valuable archives of environmental change.

Flow Behavior of Ponded Turbidity Currents [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Sedimentary Research, 2015
Sea floor topography can constrict, deflect or reflect turbidity currents resulting in a range of distinctive deposits. Where flows rebound off slopes and a suspension cloud collects in an enclosed basin, ponded or contained turbidites are deposited. Ponded turbidites have been widely recognised in slope mini-basins and on small, structurally-confined ...

The Influence of Channel Planform and Slope Topography on Turbidity Current Overbank Processes: The Example of the Acquarone Fan (Southeastern Tyrrhenian Sea)

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Overbank deposits provide a potentially valuable record of flows that have passed through a submarine channel. The architecture of overbank deposits has generally assumed to relate to autogenic processes related to channel construction.

Modeling of Breaching-Generated Turbidity Currents Using Large Eddy Simulation

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Breaching flow slides result in a turbidity current running over and directly interacting with the eroding, submarine slope surface, thereby promoting further sediment erosion. The investigation and understanding of this current are crucial, as it is the

Turbidity Current Bedforms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Turbidity currents in the submarine seascape are what river flows are in terrestrial landscapes. While rivers transport sediment from the mountains through valleys towards the sea, turbidity currents transport sediment from the shallow marine realms through canyons towards the deeper abyssal plains.

Evaluation of bottom outlet effect on the behavior of entered turbidity current into the Dez Dam reservoir [PDF]

open access: yesفناوری‌های پیشرفته در بهره‌وری آب, 2023
Sediment deposition issues for reservoirs are important because the severe deposition could excessively decrease the reservoir lifecycle. Extreme storm events usually can carry a massive amount of sediment into reservoirs, and deposition will happen ...

RECONSTRUCTION OF THE URENGOY FIELD DEPOSITS FORMATION BASED ON THE LITHOLOGY-MINERALOGY AND PARTICLE-SIZE ANALYSIS CHARACTERISTICS

open access: yesИзвестия высших учебных заведений: Нефть и газ, 2015
The results of detailed lithology-mineralogy studies and grain-size analysis of deposits from well No. 739 in the oil-and-gas condensate field Urengoy were generalized to investigate a degree of the Achimov deposits sandsilt rocks’ heritance of ...

Breaching Flow Slides and the Associated Turbidity Current

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
This paper starts with surveying the state-of-the-art knowledge of breaching flow slides, with an emphasis on the relevant fluid mechanics. The governing physical processes of breaching flow slides are explained.
