Green Pond Marsh and 50 percent to 90 percent sand and have loamy sand or sandy loam textures." The work describes hydrologic soil group C as having "moderately high runoff potential when thoroughly wet. Water transmission through the soil is somewhat restricted. Group c soils typically have between 20 percent and 40 percent clay and less than 50 percent sand and have loam, sandy clay loam, clay loam and silty clay loam textures." Green Pond Marsh is in a section of Northampton County with karst geological features. Karst geology manifests itself on topographic maps with closed, semi-closed, or linear depressions. The depressions are
Granular material the partitions rather than spread evenly into both partitions as would happen in a conventional gas. This effect, known as the granular Maxwell's demon, does not violate any thermodynamics principles since energy is constantly being lost from the system in the process. Granular systems are known to exhibit jamming and undergo a jamming transition which is thought of as a thermodynamic phase transition to a jammed state. The Lubachevsky-Stillinger algorithm of jamming allows one to produce simulated jammed granular configurations. Excited granular matter is a rich pattern-forming system. Some of the pattern-forming behaviours seen in granular materials are: Some of
