Flow structure of turbidity currents
Sedimentology, 2002AbstractA two‐dimensional numerical model is used to describe the flow structure of turbidity currents in a vertical plane. To test the accuracy of the model, it is applied to historical flows in Bute Inlet and the Grand Banks flow. The two‐dimensional spatial and temporal distributions of velocity and sediment concentration and non‐dimensionalized ...

Turbid Density Currents in Reservoirs
Water International, 1986ABSTRACT Physical features of turbid density currents in reservoirs are touched on in the first part of this paper: the plunging of the muddy fluid, the unsteadiness of the density current, the characteristics of velocity and concentration of density currents, the density current over a submerged dam and the submerged muddy lake formed by the density ...

Turbidity Currents, Bedforms, and Gullies
2001Abstract : Our main goal is the development of physically-based models for submarine sediment movement that can be used to predict the initiation, spatial development, and time duration of mud flows and turbidity currents. Of particular interest are the characteristics of the sedimentary deposits generated by density underflows, mainly their capability

Turbidity Currents and Seabed Morphology
2004Abstract : Our main goal is to assess the hydrodynamics of turbidity currents and mudflows and their ability to produce morphological features such as ripples, dunes, antidunes and gullies along their paths. Of particular interest is to elucidate the role played by turbidity currents on the inception of submarine channels and canyons.
