Turbidity currents in submarine canyons often involve large-scale movement of the seafloor. This discovery could help ocean engineers avoid damage to pipelines, communications cables, and other ...

Turbidity currents have historically been described as fast-moving currents that sweep down submarine canyons, carrying sand and mud into the deep sea. But a new paper in Nature Communications shows ...

Abstract: To enhance the accuracy of water-quality turbidity detection and address the challenges associated with drinking water safety, this study proposes a high-precision turbidity sensor detection ...

Just as rivers move sediment across the land, turbidity currents are the dominant process carrying sediments and organic carbon from coastal areas into the deep sea. Turbidity currents can also ...

The most extensive, long-term effort to monitor turbidity currents ever attempted has just been completed. The results of this two-year project challenge existing paradigms about what causes turbidity ...

Both the heat capacity and the turbidity of the liquid–liquid mixture succinonitrile–water near its upper critical consolute point were measured and two amplitude relations were tested. Using an ...
