Colored Sand Infiltration Experiment (Mobile Gravel)
This is one of the colored sand experiments from the paper:
Gibson, S. A., Abraham, D., Heath, R. and Schoellhamer, D. (2011) Visualization and Analysis of Temporal Trends of Sand Infiltration into a Gravel Bed. Water Resources Research, 47, W12610.

The other experiments in this paper explored how colored sand infiltrated into static gravel. In this experiment, we increased the shear stress until we achieved a quasi-equilibrium gravel transport. Then we introduced the sand (color in these experiments is a temporal tracer - indicating when the sand was introduced). This mobile gravel experiment did not form a sand seal which resulted in what we called "secondary infiltration" - infiltration throughout the experiment.
