Sentence examples for sediments increase from inspiring English sources
Drained compression tests showed that the strength and stiffness of sandy sediments increase with hydrate saturation.
The results show that the acoustic velocity of the natural gas hydrate-bearing sediments increases with the growing hydrate saturation.
Ca/Ti ratios as an indicator of changes in mixed siliciclastic carbonate sediments increased at ca. 26 ka, indicating the enhanced supply of carbonate sediments.
Anaerobic pre-incubation of the sediments increased the effective rate of Cr reduction that was correlated with the increase in HCl-extractable Fe(II) content in the sediments.
Observed ΣH2S concentrations in 'flat' sediments increased dramatically during the study period, and cores became sulfidic at a shallower and shallower depth (Fig. 5,6,7,8).
Episodic reoxygenation events, associated with major inflows of oxic waters, encourage the retention of iron oxyhydroxides and iron-bound phosphorus in sediments, increasing vivianite precipitation as a result.
When hillslope erosion intensified in the late 1920s following deforestation of the headwaters (1880 1920), the amount of organic carbon associated with the overbank sediments increased by ∼50%.
The presence of gas hydrate in marine sediments increases the compressional wave velocity and decreases velocity due to presence of free gas or water without much effect on the density.
The anaerobic respiration in the sediments increases the alkalinity in the pore waters and remineralized organic carbon with low δ13C values is released, promoting the in situ carbonate precipitation.
Low organic contents of playa sediments increases the susceptibility of 14C ages to contamination, with the incorporation of small amounts of dead carbon into the dated samples possibly accounting for the apparent discrepancies.
For a former terrestrial outlet glacier, removal of postglacial sediments increases the modelled ice surface elevation and ice thickness by 0.7% and 5%, respectively, over a 27-km flow line.
