Gravity-driven sediment flows on the shallow sea floor of a muddy open coast

Yun Peng et al.

Summary: Wave and/or current supported gravity-driven sediment flows play a significant role in morphological evolution in many regions worldwide. However, their episodic and ephemeral nature makes it challenging to document them in detail. This study provides solid evidence of frequent generation of such flows over the shallow sea floor of a muddy open coast.

Direct Numerical Simulations of Miniature Along-Shelf Current-Supported Turbidity Currents: Conceptual Investigation of Velocity Structure and Drag Coefficient

S. Haddadian et al.

Summary: This study investigates the velocity structure of ACSTCs through direct numerical simulations and provides parameterization relations. The results show that density stratification and drag coefficient are influenced by the product of sediment settling velocity and sediment concentration, affecting the amount of sediments carried by ACSTCs. The role of sediment-induced stable density stratification is analyzed to determine the velocity profile of ACSTCs.
