Gradistat accepts data from sieve analyses (mass retained) or laser diffraction particle size analyzers (volume percentages).
: Automatically flags "noisy" samples that may have been contaminated during sieving or laser analysis. 2. Enhanced Dynamic Visualization G2Sd: Grain-Size Statistics and Description of Sediment -
