Cross-shelf sediment transport by an anticyclonic eddy off northern california.
A combination of satellite imagery, shipboard profiles, drifter tracks, and moored current observations reveals that an anticyclonic eddy off the coast of northern California transported plumes of suspended sediments from the continental shelf into the deep ocean. The horizontal scale of the eddy was about 90 kilometers, and the eddy remained over the continental shelf and slope for about 2 mon...
متن کاملLarge Eddy Simulation of Sediment Transport in the Presence of Surface Gravity Waves, Currents and Complex Bedforms
Our current main focus is building upon earlier work that produced quantitatively accurate hydrodynamics and producing a tool for sediment transport modeling. Our tool is a large-eddy simulation [LES] in three dimensions and time, at scales on the order of meters, and in the presence of waves and a current. Our numerical analysis objectives include accurate representation of the flow near rough...
متن کاملDissolved organic matter status in Damietta estuary of the Nile.
The seasonal distribution of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in Damietta estuary of the Nile was investigated to show the influence of organic pollution. The DOM values increased generally with depth. The vertical values of DOM varied from 0.23-9.97 mg O/l. The average DOM values gave noticeable local variations in each month and pronounced monthly variations at each station. The maximum monthly...
متن کاملLarge eddy simulation of sediment transport over rippled beds
Wave-induced boundary layer (BL) flows over sandy rippled bottoms are studied using a numerical model that applies a one-way coupling of a “far-field” inviscid flow model to a “near-field” large eddy simulation (LES) Navier– Stokes (NS) model. The incident inviscid velocity and pressure fields force the LES, in which near-field, wave-induced, turbulent bottom BL flows are simulated. A sediment ...
متن کاملCross-shore suspended sediment transport under tidal currents
The transport of sediment over an intertidal mudflat by a cross-shore tidal current is investigated analytically by formulating a mathematical model of the fluid and particulate motion. The model exploits the low gradient of the intertidal flats and is based upon a shallow-layer approximation. It is found that the sediment transport comprises advection with the mean flow, deposition and erosion...
