What process involves the transport of sediment?
There are actually three processes that move sediment, all involving a fluid: flowing water, blowing wind (air is a fluid), and ice movement by glaciers (also a fluid). The viscosity of the fluid determines what size of particle will be moved. Because of its low viscosity, wind will only move clay to sand size particles. Glacial ice, on the other hand, has a very high viscosity and can move house-size rocks. The particle sizes moved by water falls in between the extremes of wind and glaciers.
What does the gram stain in a cerebrospinal fluid analysis indicate?
The Gram stain is performed on a sediment of the CSF and is positive in at least 60% of cases of bacterial meningitis.
How is sediment?
The sediment transport by the rock cycle
Turbidity current density results from water mixing with what substance?
Turbidity refers to the cloudiness or haziness of a fluid. Turbidity current density results from water mixing with sediment particles.
What are particles of materials that are settle out of water?
Sediment
What is the fluid left above sediment after centrifugation called?
Centrifugation is the process of separating two immiscible liquids. The fluid which is above the sediment after centrifugation, is called the supernatant.
What is the clear liquid above the sediment called?
The fluid above the sediment after centrifugation is called the supernatant.
How is a river delta formed?
A river delta is formed from the deposition of sediments carried by a river as the river enters an ocean, sea, lake, or another river. This is because the flow velocity decreases significantly and the fluid loses the ability to transport sediment.
Is ketchup fluid?
One of the definitions of 'fluid' is that the product has the ability to flow and the ability to take on the shape of a container. Ketchup is therefore a fluid
What factors affect a river's ability to erode and carry sediment?
The factors that affect a river's ability to erode and carry sediment would be its size, how deep it is, and how fast it is going. If it is going downhill that can also affect it.
What factors affect a wave's ability to erode and carry sediment?
looseness of sediment, speed of wave, angle of wae on sediment, angle of beach floor (as that changes the waves suction angle height and strength)
What Hydraulic radius river?
Measure of a river's channel efficiency (its ability to move water and sediment)
When was the bombing in ripple rock?
Ripples are caused by the flow of fluid (liquid or gas) over sediment.
What has the author Rob A Kleijwegt written?
Rob A. Kleijwegt has written: 'On sediment transport in circular sewers with non-cohesive deposits' -- subject(s): Sediment transport, Fluid dynamics, Sewerage
What does mudflow mean in science?
A mudflow is a mixture of sediment and water that moves down hill in a fluid manner.
Is fluid or crystallized intelligence the ability to solve new and unusual problems?
the ability to solve new problems and think in abstract form is the fluid intelligence
What does ability to flow mean?
Ability to flow means in general, fluidity is the term used to refer to the ability of a fluid toflow
