Influence of Grain Size on Sediment Transport Rates with Emphasis on the Total Longshore Rate
This Coastal and Hydraulic Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) summarizes the state of understanding of the influence of grain size on surf zone sediment transport and is a companion to Smith et al. (2004). This CHETN discusses details of bed-load and suspended load transport, and the classical bed-load regime is shown to encompass two distinct modes of transport. Four LST models with varying le...
متن کاملEvaluation of the Cerc Formula Using Large-scale Model Data
Longshore transport experiments were conducted in a large-scale physical model to evaluate predictions of the CERC formula with measured longshore sediment transport rates. It was found that the CERC formula produced reasonable estimates if the coefficient K was calibrated and applied to waves with similar breaker type. The calibrated K values are much smaller than values that are commonly used...
متن کاملLongshore Sediment Transport Rate Measured by Short-term Impoundment
The total longshore sediment transport rate in the surf zone was measured at a temporary groin installed at Indian Rocks Beach, west central Florida. Approximate mass balance between updrift accumulation and downdrift erosion, which served as an indicator of reliability, was obtained in four of the six runs, which were subjected to further analysis. Magnitudes of three of the four transport rat...
متن کاملWave Induced Mine Burial and Sediment Transport in Coastal Environment: Wave and Sediment Transport Modeling Studies
The long-term goal of this work is to develop numerical simulation techniques for predicting waveinduced sediment transport and bed evolution in the coastal zone (order 10 meter depth outside the surf zone), at horizontal scales of tens of meters or less, and the scouring/burial around objects/obstacles (mine-like), partially buried in the bottom. This research was initially motivated by the Na...
متن کاملWave-induced sediment transport and sandbar migration.
Onshore sediment transport and sandbar migration are important to the morphological evolution of beaches but are not well understood. Here, a model that accounts for fluid accelerations in waves predicts the onshore sandbar migration observed on an ocean beach. In both the observations and the model, the location of the maximum acceleration-induced transport moves shoreward with the sandbar, re...
