Consolidation test in settling column in Barataria Bay, Louisiana on 2019-03-07 (NCEI Accession 0276832)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 04:17 AM | Dataset Last Updated: August 18, 2023 at 12:00 AM
About 30 gallons of surficial sediment was collected using a Ponar grab sampler from the bottom of Barataria Bay North station at 29.420417 N, 89.944028 W on 2019-03-07. Sediment was transported to Louisiana State University (Baton Rouge, Louisiana, USA). A series of laboratory consolidation tests were performed under room temperature (about 20 degree C). During the experiments, two salinities at 1 and 5 psu and four initial sediment concentrations of slurry at 10, 40, 60 and 120 g/L were used. The elevation of water sediment interface was tracked through time to measure the sediment consolidation process. See similar methods from Lo et al.(2014) and Sha et al. (2018).
