The evolution of a submarine landslide is a very complicated process due to slurry–water interactions. Most previous studies have focused on debris flows or turbidity currents independently.

One-dimensional morphodynamic model coupling open-channel flow and turbidity current in reservoir
Traditional depth-averaged morphodynamic models for turbidity currents usually focus on the propagation of currents after plunging. However, owing to the unsteady characteristic of the plunge point locations and the tough conditions of field measurement ...

Laboratory Investigation of the Parameters of the Submerged Plates on the Turbidity Currents Characteristics [PDF]
In dam reservoirs, the turbidity current is usually the cause of sediment transfer and deposition. Therefore, it is necessary to study this phenomenon.

Self-stratifying turbidity currents
Turbidity currents, seafloor flows driven by the excess density of suspended particles, are key conveyors of sediment, nutrient, and pollutant from the continental margins to deep ocean, and pose critical submarine geohazard risks. Due to their vast scale and extreme aspect ratio, extant models are constrained to highly simplified depth-averaged theory

Relating the Flow Processes and Bedforms of Steady-State and Waning Density Currents
The interaction between turbidity currents and mobile substrates can lead to the development of different types of bedforms. Although much research has been conducted on bedform development beneath open channel flows, research into bedform development ...

The role of intratidal oscillations in sediment resuspension in a diurnal, partially mixed estuary [PDF]
Using detailed observations of the mean and turbulent properties of flow, salinity and turbidity that spanned 2001/02, we examined the physical mechanisms underpinning sediment resuspension in the low-energy Swan River estuary, Western Australia. In this

Experimental Study of the Effect of Slope and Bed Roughness on Head and Body Velocities in Sedimentary Density Current [PDF]
Sedimentation in dam reservoirs is the most important phenomenon in reducing their useful life. One of the most important phenomenon affecting sediment movement in dam reservoirs is density current.

Olfactory cue use by three-spined sticklebacks foraging in turbid water: prey detection or prey location? [PDF]
Foraging, when senses are limited to olfaction, is composed of two distinct stages: the detection of prey and the location of prey. While specialist olfactory foragers are able to locate prey using olfactory cues alone, this may not be the case for ...
