Materials that become sediment through changes in this quantity are classified according to theBouma sequence.
Materials that become sediment through changes in this quantity are classified according to theBouma sequence. This property is typically measured with Jackson Units, which uses the visibility ofa flame as a standard of reference. Although it is not transparency, a circle with 2 black and 2 whiteregions is used to measure this property of a fluid - that apparatus is the Secchi Disk. Circulationdriven by this quantity can be induced by (*) soil liquefaction. Adding plankton or runoff to a liquidincreases this quantity, which causes sediment to flow underwater. For 10 points, name this measure of amurkiness of water, typically caused by particles suspended in the liquid.
