The Vakhsh River is tributary to the Amu Dayra, supporting numerous hydropower facilities as well as irrigation and community water supplies. High sediment loads are major concerns for these uses, yet little is known about the spatial distribution of the...

For health and impact studies of water systems, monitoring underwater environments is essential, for which multi-frequency single- and multibeam echosounders are commonly used state-of-the-art technologies. However, the current scarcity of sediment refer...

Suspended and deposited sediments in streams can interfere with filter-feeding caddisfly larvae by reducing feeding sites and feeding efficiency, potentially lowering the densities, growth rates, and secondary production of an important trout prey. We co...

Changes in undrained shear strength are important to the stability analysis of hydrate reservoirs during natural gas hydrate production. This study proposes a prediction model of undrained shear strength of hydrate-bearing fine-grained sediments based on...

Marine sediment is an important channel for methane leakage from the earth interior to the atmosphere. The investigation of gas invasion in fine-grained marine sediments is of great theoretical and practical significance in marine science and engineering...

Proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) is used to examine the release of highly concentrated water?sediment mixture in water, with or without ambient current. This technique allows us to extract the dominant features in spatio-temporal data sets and the P...

To yield environmental benefits, fine sediments with ~10% organic matter, termed muck, were dredged from a tributary to the Indian River Lagoon. Key changes were documented by sampling amphipods, sediments, and the water column near the bottom before dre...

In this study, we analyzed the clay mineralogy and geochemistry of surface and drill core samples from the northeastern Beibu Gulf in order to unravel the sediment provenance of, and factors controlling, the sedimentary environment. The main clay mineral...

Fine-grained natural gas hydrate (NGH) reservoirs are widely distributed across the world and bear more than 90% of global NGH. However, it is difficult to exploit this kind of NGH reservoir economically and environmentally using conventional methods. Wa...
