Rheology of Natural Sediments and Its Influence on the Settling of Dropstones in Hemipelagic Marine Sediment

Abstract We investigate the rheology of naturally occurring hemipelagic marine sediment and compare measurements to another naturally occurring sediment from a terrestrial mud volcano and literature values. The hemipelagic marine sediment, collected by IODP 340, has a median grain size of 5.5 micron...
