Abstract
Acoustic observations of a low-density sediment flow originating from a dredge operating in the main Miami shipping channel have been made. The flow proceeded seaward along layered thermal gradients at the top of the shallow thermocline and at greater depths. Acoustic, thermal, salinity, chemical, and transmissivity measurements were made during summer and winter in 1974.
