doi:10.2204/iodp.proc.333.201.2014 SummaryWe characterized transport and deformation properties from Sites C0011, C0012, and C0018 with CRS consolidation experiments, grain size analyses, specific surface measurements, and MICP measurements. Permeability values are mostly <10–15 m2 and generally decrease with increasing depth. Compression indexes, which define stress-strain behavior during consolidation, range from 0.26 to 2.7. Overconsolidation ratios range from 0.20 to 4.1 and generally decrease with increasing depth. Median grain sizes range from 1.1 to 15.4 µm, and samples consist mainly of silt- and clay-sized particles. Specific surface values range from 25.7 to 77.7 m2/g. MICP measurements yield median pore throat radii of 0.087 to 0.36 µm and air-water capillary entry pressure values of 0.064 to 0.77 MPa. |
