Flow Behavior of Ponded Turbidity Currents [PDF]
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 ...

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.

Rapid gravity filtration operational performance assessment and diagnosis for preventative maintenance from on-line data [PDF]
Rapid gravity filters, the final particulate barrier in many water treatment systems, are typically monitored using on-line turbidity, flow and head loss instrumentation.

Modeling of Breaching-Generated Turbidity Currents Using Large Eddy Simulation
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]
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]
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 ...

Breaching Flow Slides and the Associated Turbidity Current
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.
