The sediments recovered from above 200 meters below seafloor (mbsf) at both sites have similar consolidation properties. The compression index (Cc) ranges from 0.1508 to 0.5052. Cc decreases with void ratio at both sites. The expansion index (Ce) ranges from 0.0153 to 0.1144 and decreases with void ratio at both sites. The in situ hydraulic conductivity (Ki) ranges from 2.18X10 (super -11) to 6.38X10 (super -10) m/s. Ki decreases with depth. The e-log(Ki) relation has different slopes for sediments above and below 300 mbsf at Site U1324. The coefficient of consolidation (cv) ranges from 1.5X10 (super -8) to 4.2X10 (super -) 7 m (super 2) /s. cv increases with depth for the sediments above 200 mbsf at both sites and shows no clear trend for the sediments below 200 mbsf at Site U1324. The preconsolidation pressure (P'c) is significantly less than the hydrostatic vertical effective stress (sigma 'vh) at both sites, which suggests that Ursa sediments are overpressured.completedEngineering geologyAtlantic Oceancompressionconsolidationconsolidometer testscoresexpansionExpedition 308experimental studiesGulf of Mexicohydraulic conductivityIntegrated Ocean Drilling ProgramIODP Site 1322IODP Site 1324laboratory studiesmarine sedimentsmechanical propertiesNorth Atlanticnorthern Gulf of Mexicooverpressuresedimentssoil mechanicsstrainstressUrsa Basinwater contenturn:org.iodp:exp:308urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:308:site:U1322urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:308urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignurn:org.iodp:exp:308:site:U1324urnlargerWorkCitationstudyurn:org.iodp:exp:308urnlargerWorkCitationcampaignEnglishgeoscientificInformation-89.0800-89.010028.050028.0600application/pdfunknownSEDIS Publication Catalogue
