Modeling and Simulation of Turbidity Currents. Morales de Luna, T., Castro Díaz, M. J., & Parés Madroñal, C. In Finite Volumes for Complex Applications V, pages 593–600, May, 2008. Wiley. ISBN 978-1-84821-035-6
Modeling and Simulation of Turbidity Currents [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
We present a new model for hyperpycnal plumes or turbidity currents. This model takes into account deposition and erosion effects as well as solid transport of particles at the bed load due to the current. The model is obtained as depth-average equations under the shallow water hypothesis describing the balance of fluid mass, sediment mass and mean flow. The final system is hyperbolic and numerical simulations are carried out using finite volume schemes and path-conservative schemes.
