The reclamation coral sand (CS) layer is the survival environment for island reef vegetation in the South China Sea. The root system within the CS bed draws water necessary for vegetation growth, implying that the water-retention capacity of CS plays a p...

Internal erosion refers to the seepage-induced fine particle migration phenomenon in soil. Deep alluviums in valleys usually contain cohesionless gap-graded sandy gravels with poor internal stability. The construction of embankment dams on such alluviums...

Artificial reclamation is one of the main means of land expansion in coastal cities. However, the permeability of underlying soft clay (USC), derived from the dredged load, has not been paid enough attention, although it is closely related to the long-te...
