TDB_13_1

TDB-13-1: Fan-delta experiment performed in Tulane University Delta Basin. Experiment evolved under constant forcings of water (0.17 l/s), sediment (0.00017 l/s), and sea-level rise rate (0.25 mm/hr). Experiment run time was 1000 hr. Experiment was divided into 2 stages. The first stage used a weakly cohesive sediment while the second stage used a moderately cohesive sediment. Both sediment mixtures had wide grain size distributions with a median diameter of 65 microns. Experiment performed to explore autogenic sediment transport and stratigraphy with topography monitored every 1 hour of run time.

TDB-13-1：于杜兰大学三角洲盆地开展的扇三角洲（fan-delta）实验。本实验在恒定的水动力（0.17升/秒）、输沙率（0.00017升/秒）与海平面上升速率（0.25毫米/小时）条件下进行，总运行时长为1000小时。实验分为两个阶段：第一阶段采用弱黏性沉积物，第二阶段采用中黏性沉积物。两类沉积物均具有宽粒级分布，中值粒径为65微米。本实验旨在探究自源性泥沙输运与沉积地层发育规律，实验过程中每运行1小时即对地形开展一次监测。
