Seasonal Variation of Mud Floc Sizes in Two Small Freshwater Streams
Flocculation is not only an important part of sediment dynamics within coastal marine waters, but is also a factor of sediment transport within small freshwater streams in Blacksburg, Virginia. The goal of this project was to develop a relationship between floc sizes and stream characteristics …

The Development of an In-situ Mud Floc Microscope Imaging Device and In-situ Floc Observations from the Lowermost Mississippi River
… up a large fraction of sediment transported within rivers to the coasts. Predicting where mud will settle is complicated by the cohesive nature of silts and clays, which can combine to form larger aggregates known as flocs. The size and density, and consequently, the settling velocity, of flocs …
