Journal Article
de Vet, M. G., Fernández, R., Baas, J. H., McCaffrey, W. D., & Dorrell, R. M. (2023). Streamwise Turbulence Modulation in Non-Uniform Open-Channel Clay Suspension Flows. Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 128(8), Article e2022JF006781. https://doi.org/10.1029/2022JF006781

Cohesive sediment particles are ubiquitous in environmental flows. The cohesive properties of clay promote the formation of clay flocs and gels and relatively small suspended clay concentrations can enhance or suppress turbulence in a flow. Furthermo...
