Fig. 3 Granulometric Samples: particle-size distributions (PSDs), key statistical derivatives and parametrically-resolved principle particle populations. Sample modes and median particle sizes are given, with black numbers referring to minimally-dispersed (MD), and white numbers to fully-dispersed (FD) samples. The PSDs are presented as particle sizes (in µm) on a logarithmic scale versus normalised volume, with Wentworth size boundaries of clay/silt (3.9 µm), silt/very-fine sand (62.5 µm), and very-fine sand/fine sand (125 µm) indicated by dotted lines. The sedimentary fractions are quantified in terms of fine (3.9-20 µm) and coarse silt (20-62.5 µm), very-fine sand (62.5-125 µm), and fine sand (125-250 µm), and depicted as pie charts with blue colours referring to MD, and red colours to FD samples (see legend). Parametrically-resolved, partially-overlapping principle particle populations are plotted in blue for MD, and red for FD samples. The population modes are indicated as black, white and grey triangles (see legend). Dominant particle populations are listed as mode/mean values (in µm) with corresponding relative percentages. Minimally-dispersed PSDs of a succession of laminations forming a representative slackwater couplet are superimposed, with partially-constrained modes highlighting the depositional size trends in the coarse silt and fine silt particle populations over the course of the flood flux (see legend).

Marina Sciense Park aims to create a new compact city where the most innovative companies co-exist with research, training and study transfer centers, as well as housing and green areas. Parametric urbanism is used as an alternative to conventional master planning strategy to meet the requirements of modern society.
