Sorby Lab Suite

Welcome to the Sorby Lab Suite at the University of Leeds. Our facilities enable a wide interdisciplinary community to experiment upon a range of simulated natural processes, from flow-sediment transport links in alluvial channels, through the dispersal of sediment in the deep oceans, to particulate transport through pipes and rig vessels.

Sorby Lab Facilities

State-of-the-art high special and temporal 3D visualisation of complex geophysical flows and dedicated laboratory space for the design and measurement of sediment-laden and solute gravity current experiments

SSPAL Facilities

The Sediment, Soil and Pollutant Analysis Laboratory is dedicated space for the high resolution analysis of particle character (shape and size).
