Field observations of instantaneous water slopes and horizontal pressure gradients in the swash-zone
Field observations of instantaneous water surface slopes in the swash zone are presented. For free-surface flows with a hydrostatic pressure distribution the surface slope is equivalent to the horizontal pressure gradient. Observations were made using a novel technique which in its simplest form consists of a horizontal stringline extending seaward from the beach face. Visual observation, still...
متن کاملEulerian flow velocities in the swash zone: Field data and model predictions
[1] Measurements of Eulerian flow velocity obtained within the swash zone on a relatively steep beach face (gradient 1:23) are compared with an extended ballistic swash model. The model only requires a friction factor, beach slope and terminal bore velocity as input. The following model predictions matched well with observations: (1) The maximum Eulerian flow velocity is the shoreline velocity ...
متن کاملSediment transport partitioning in the swash zone of a large - scale laboratory beach
Swash zone sheet flow and suspended sediment transport rates are estimated on a 14 coarse sand beach constructed in a large-scale laboratory wave flume. Three test cases under 15 monochromatic waves with wave heights of 0.74 m and wave periods of 8 and 12.2 s were 16 analyzed. Sediment flux in the sheet flow layer exceeds several hundred kg m s during both 17 uprush and backwash. Suspended sedi...
متن کاملMicrowave radar cross sections and Doppler velocities measured in the surf zone
[1] The relationship between microwave imaging radar measurements of fluid velocities in the surf zone and shoaling, breaking, and broken waves is studied with field observations. Normalized radar cross section (NRCS) and Doppler velocity are estimated from microwave measurements at near-grazing angles, and in situ fluid velocities are measured with acoustic Doppler velocimeters (ADVs). Joint h...
متن کاملPeculiar Velocities in the Zone of Avoidance: Determining the Distance to the Norma cluster
Deep J , H and Ks photometry of the low Galactic latitude Norma cluster has been obtained with the 1.4-m InfraRed Survey Facility (IRSF) and with SOFI on the NTT. Together with spectroscopy taken at the AngloAustralian Observatory using 2dF, the near-infrared Fundamental Plane of the Norma cluster will be used to determine the distance to this cluster and to assess its location within the Great...
