Fig. 7. The data and model distributions from Fig. 3 replotted to illustrate the linear relationship that is indicated by Eq. [2]. In these plots data can be shown only for r > r₀ and P(r) < 1. The two filled circles in each plot correspond to the cl + si and cl + si + fvfs values used as input in Eq. [4]. cl, clay fraction; fvfs, fine plus very fine sand fraction; si, silt fraction.
