Effects of Compaction on Sediment Thickness and Pore Water Movement
As an extension of numerical procedures (Gustavs 1992), we created a coupled
steady-state model of sedimentation, compaction, and pore-water movement to
study the effects of compaction on growing sedimentary sequences. The model
is based on the relation between effective pressure and porosity and assumes a
homogenous accumulation of mud at a constant sedimentation rate during time.
