Description Laboratory specializing in the instrumented study of sediment transport.
Functions include calibration tests and experiments on optical sensors used in bottom tripods or moored instrument arrays, experiments on the fall velocities of particles, internal wave and turbulence experiments using flume tanks, and specialized particle analyses.
Results useful for sediment transport studies (e.g., pollutant dispersal studies).

Specialized
Equipment Coulter Counter (specialized fine-fraction particle analysis).
Calibration tank for field measurements of suspended sediments.
