Morphodynamics and sedimentary structures of bedforms under supercritical-flow conditions: new insights from flume experiments
27 Supercritical flow phenomena are fairly common in modern sedimentary environments, yet their 28 recognition and analysis remain difficult in the stratigraphic record. This fact is commonly 29 ascribed to the poor preservation potential of deposits from high-energy supercritical flows. 30 However, the number of flume datasets on supercritical flow dynamics and sedimentary 31 structures is ver...
متن کاملBedforms and Mine Burial
The generation and migration of bedforms (eg, ripples, megaripples and sand bars) on sandy bottoms in the nearshore (0-8 m water depths) provides a mechanism for objects on the seafloor to become buried. As a bedform migrates past a mine, the mine will fall to the low point of the bedform trough before subsequently being buried by the passage of the following bedform crest. The statistics of mi...
متن کاملGravity wave turbulence in a laboratory flume.
We present an experimental study of the statistics of surface gravity wave turbulence in a flume of a horizontal size 12 x 6 m. For a wide range of amplitudes the wave energy spectrum was found to scale as Eomega approximately omega(-nu) in a frequency range of up to one decade. However, nu appears to be nonuniversal: it depends on the wave intensity and ranges from about 6 to 4. We discuss our...
متن کاملSeiching in a Large Wave Flume
INTRODUCTION The Cross-shore Transport Experiment (CROSSTEX) is a multi-investigator, multi-university, scientific research project centered around a coordinated series of near-prototype scale experiments that were conducted at Oregon State University's O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory (HWRL) during the summer of 2005 (Maddux et al, 2006). The experiments took place in the 104m long, 3.7m...
متن کاملSupporting evidence from the New York drumlin field that elongate subglacial bedforms indicate fast ice flow
Although drumlins and other subglacial bedforms are well-studied features, controls on their formation and morphometry have remained elusive. Of current interest is the hypothesis that elongate bedforms (length:width ratios]/10) indicate fast ice flow, and perhaps the location of past ice streams. This hypothesis is explored by analysing drumlins from the New York State drumlin field. A subset ...
