| dc.description.abstract | This research was a detailed study of the clay fabrics and selected geotechnical properties of cored submarine sediment sampled to depths of 150 m from the Mississippi Prodelta depositional environment. The clay fabric from Deep Sea Drilling Project (D.S.D.P.) sample also was examined for comparison with the Delta samples because of its highly complex nature in the undisturbed versus the remolded states. Analysis was carried out using techniques of transmission electron microscopy (T.E.M.), unique sample preparation, and quality control. ... | en |
