MS student Christian Mooneyham started running a new set of experiments on the deposition of mud. The experiments will take place over this fall, but during a few of the control experiments he noticed the development of bedload flocs and bedforms composed of a combination of silt like aggregates and mud flocs. The video below was taken with our floc camera and images a section of the flume bed approximately 2.4 mm x 1.4 mm; video in approximately real time.
