Research Details:
Keywords: turbidity currents, submarine channels, semi-arid river systems.

Description: Currently working with Jeff Peakall, Gareth Keevil and Sanjeev Gupta to investigate the fluid and sediment dynamics of turbidity currents in sinuous submarine channels through experimental modelling. Previous research includes an experimental study of sustained experimenal turbidity currents, and investigation of sediment transport processes during a high flow event in the tropical and semi-arid Burdekin River, north Queensland, Australia.
