Sediments in bottom-arrested gravity plumes: numerical case studies / Hermann Fohrmann, Jan O. Backhaus, Frank Blaume, Jan Rumohr.
Title: | Sediments in bottom-arrested gravity plumes: numerical case studies / Hermann Fohrmann, Jan O. Backhaus, Frank Blaume, Jan Rumohr. |
Author(s): | Fohrmann, Hermann. Backhaus, Jan O. Blaume, Frank. Rumohr, Jan. |
Date: | 1998. |
In: | Journal of Physical Oceanography. (1998.), Vol. 28(11) (1998) |
Abstract: | Hydrostatic "reduced gravity" model, as used for transient bottom- arrested gravity pljmes, was coupled to sediment transport model, allowing one to simulate autosuspension and size-differential deposition of sediments based on local turbulence and settling velocities. Mechanism is then faster than classic seawater plumes. Results suggest that "turbidity" plumes may be important for deep waters in Arctic Ocean. Realistic simulation of plume cascading down continental slope of western Barents Sea is presented. |
