Fig. 31

Side view of flume tank showing sandy debris flows with well-developed turbulent clouds (i.e., turbidity currents) on top of sandy debris flows. This flow transformation occurred downslope from the entry point (i.e., flume head tank) where debris-flow slurry was introduced. Compare with Fig. 32b for “high-density turbidity currents” (HDTC) of Postma et al. (1988)
