Assessment of the Longshore Sediment Transport at Buarcos Beach (west Coast of Portugal) through Different Formulations
This study applies some of the most practical longshore sand transport formulations and evaluates their adequacy to estimate the total (suspended and bed load) longshore sediment transport rate (LSTR) at Buarcos Beach, in the West coast of Portugal. The straightforward methodology here present is simple to apply and therefore useful to quickly obtain a first estimate of the littoral transport i...
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 کاملMeasuring Longshore Sediment Transport in a Large-Scale 3-Dimensional Laboratory Facility
Aiming at improving present understanding on longshore sediment transport (LST), the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center recently established a Large-scale Sediment Transport Facility (LSTF). The 3dimensional movable-bed facility has the capability of simulating wave conditions that are directly comparable to annual averages along many low energy coasts. Wave, current, and sedime...
متن کاملModelling of Sediment Transport in Beris Fishery Port
In this paper, the large amount of sedimentation and the resultant shoreline advancements at the breakwaters of Beris Fishery Port are studied. A series of numerical modeling of waves, sediment transport, and shoreline changes were conducted to predict the complicated equilibrium shoreline. The outputs show that the nearshore directions of wave components are not perpendicular to the coast whic...
متن کاملInfluence 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...
