Field measurements of sand boil hydraulics

A sand boil is a cone of granular material deposited on the ground surface around concentrated points of vertical seepage. Sand boils often form downstream of embankments during flood events, creating unfiltered seepage exits that may lead to initiation of backward erosion piping (BEP) in the founda...
