| Research Abstract |
Clay fabric of experimentally formed fluid-mud deposits were observed using an alcohol-replacing drying method that can minimize fabric deformation during drying processes in samples. As a result,"granular structure" characterized by face-to-face contact of each clay particle was observed. The granular structures are interpreted as preserved flocs formed by densely packed clay particles in the fluid mud on the basis of size distribution and frequency per unit area of the granular structures. The granular structures were also observed in fluid-mud deposits of the tide-dominated Rokkaku River estuary, Saga, southwest Japan.
