Samples included biogenic sediments as well as clastic sediments. Measured vertical permeabilities vary from 2.1 × 10^–16 to 1.1 × 10^–14 m². Grain sizes of samples were measured using wet sieving to estimate fraction of sand-sized (>63 µm) material and a SediGraph to distinguish silt-sized (4–63 µm) and clay-sized (<4 µm) particles. ¹ Screaton, E., Gamage, K., and James, S., 2014.
