Scaling surf zone turbulence
[1] Turbulence in the surf zone, the shallow region adjacent to the shoreline, has a key role in beach erosion, fertilization, dispersal, and larval settlement of marine invertebrates, and microbial contamination dilution in beach waters. Breakingwave generated (the dominant source) surf zone turbulence is understood poorly. A new surf zone turbulent dissipation rate scaling is derived, that co...
متن کاملAcoustical Studies Of Sediment Dynamics In The Surf Zone: Sandyduck'97
The central goal of this project is a deeper understanding of the dynamic adjustment of mobile sandy sediments to fluid forcing in and near the surf zone at small (1cm to 10m) and intermediate (10m to 100m) horizontal scales. The effort is motivated by the dual need to develop more realistic models of fluid-sediment interactions in the nearshore zone, and for suitable in situ measurement techni...
متن کاملMonitoring baseline suspended sediment in forested basins: the effects of sampling on suspended sediment rating curves
Rating curves are widely used for directly assessing changes in the suspended sediment delivery process and indirectly for estimating total yields. Four sampling methods were simulated over a 31-day record of suspended sediment from the North Fork of the Mad River near Korbel, California. The position and size of the four groups of plotted slope/intercept pairs indicated differences in bias and...
متن کاملSystematic Sampling for Suspended Sediment
Because of high costs or complex logistics, scientific populations cannot be measured entirely and must be sampled. Accepted scientific practice holds that sample selection be based on statistical principles to assure objectivity when estimating totals and variances. Probability sampling--obtaining samples with known probabilities--is the only method that assures these results. However, probabi...
متن کاملFlow and Suspended Sediment Events in the Near-Coastal Zone off Corpus Christi, Texas
Each inner continental shelf region has an interesting combination of current, wave and sediment regimes. White et al. (1983) characterize the surface sediments off Corpus Christi, Texas, as dominantly very fine sand in the nearshore zone, from the shoreface out 6-8 km, transitioning to mud (silt-clay) farther offshore. The pattern does not vary substantially alongshore. They indicate that the ...
