Plastic deformation is described by compression indices, which range from 0.19 to 0.37. Expansion indices, the elastic deformation measured during unload/reload cycles on samples, vary from 0.02 to 0.029. Consolidation experiments provide lower bounds on permeability between 5.4 </span><span face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" data-mce-style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">x</span><span> 10</span>^–16<span> m</span>²<span> and 1.9 </span><span face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif" data-mce-style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;" style="font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">x</span><span> 10</span>^–18<span>m</span>²<span>, depending on the consolidation state of the sample.</span></p> application/pdf 10.2973/odp.proc.sr.194.003.2004 en Ocean Drilling Program, Texas A&M University Data report: Compressibility, permeability, and grain size of shallow sediments, sites 1194 and 1198 reports
