(Figure 2) Suspended sediment concentration profiles from samples in the outer harbor of Emden, Germany

One particularly complex phenomenon is the episodic, tidally driven variation of navigable depth level as a result of fluid mud settlement. This paper presents results from dynamic cone penetration testing with pore pressure measurement (CPTU) as a nonacoustical, direct device to support surveying and management of these areas. The new technique is modular and uses a disk configuration for fluid mud detection. Both disk resistance and pore pressure measurements accurately identify suspended matter concentrations of 90 g/L or more, and the transition from fluid mud to consolidating mud once concentrations exceed 150 g/L. Hence, the procedure attests the potential for rapid, reliable assessment of a fluid mud layer and concurrent characterization of the underlying consolidated sediment by monitoring the pore pressure and strength changes during penetration.

This layer is a georeferenced raster image of the historic paper map entitled: Le Duché de Luxembourg divisé en Quartier Walon, et Allemand : dans chacun desquels sont diviséz, les Seigneuries, Prevostés et Comtés. Le Duché de Bouillon ; le Comté de Namur et le Pays entre Sambre et Meuse, Dedié au Roy par son tres-humble, tres-obeissant, tres-fidele sujet et serviteur Hubert Jaillot, Geographe du Roy. It was published by chez l'auteur, joignant les grands Augustins, aux deux Globes, avec privilége du roy in 1705. Scale [ca. 1:143,370]. Covers Luxembourg and portions of Belgium, Germany, and France. This layer is image 2 of 4 total images of the four sheet source map, representing the northeast portion of the map. Map in French.The image inside the map neatline is georeferenced to the surface of the earth and fit to the Europe Lambert Conformal Conic coordinate system. All map collar and inset information is also available as part of the raster image, including any inset maps, profiles, statistical tables, directories, text, illustrations, index maps, legends, or other information associated with the principal map. This map shows features such as drainage, roads, cities and other human settlements, fortifications, territorial and administrative boundaries, ground cover, and more. Relief shown pictorially. This layer is part of a selection of digitally scanned and georeferenced historic maps from the Harvard Map Collection. These maps typically portray both natural and manmade features. The selection represents a range of originators, ground condition dates, scales, and map purposes.
