Abstract: Pore water in marine sediments contains dissolved salts. For marine clays and biogenous oozes which have high void ratios, the dissolved salts should be taken into account in determining soil void ratio, water content, dry ...

Abstract: A field study was made for evaluation of variability in degree of compaction of structural fills. Multiple runs of field‐density tests were performed at three sites by nine geotechnical engineering firms in San Diego, ...

Abstract: Most of the marine sediments in the continental margin are derived from terrestrial sources, but vast areas of the sea floor are covered with sediments that are unique to the ocean environment. A knowledge of the origin ...
