Turbulence measurements in the Garonne river tidal bore: first observations
A tidal bore is an abrupt rise in water depth advancing in some estuaries during spring tide conditions. In the present study, some detailed turbulence field measurements were conducted continuously at high-frequency (64 Hz) in the Garonne River tidal bore. The turbulent velocity components were sampled with an acoustic Doppler velocimeter (ADV) at 0.8 m beneath the freesurface. On 10 and 11 Se...
متن کاملSediment Processes and Flow Reversal in the Undular Tidal Bore of the Garonne River
A tidal bore is a series of waves propagating upstream as the tidal flow turns to rising, and the bore front corresponds to the leading edge of the tidal wave in a funnel shaped estuarine zone with macro-tidal conditions. Some field observations were conducted in the tidal bore of the Garonne River on 7 June 2012 in the Arcins channel, a few weeks after a major flood. Despite the high initial w...
متن کاملField measurements of unsteady turbulence in a tidal bore: the Garonne river in October 2013
A tidal bore is an unsteady rapidly-varied open channel flow generated by the swift advance of the early flood tide in a funnel-shaped river estuary when the tidal range exceeds 4.5 to 6 m. This contribution presents a detailed field investigation conducted on the tidal bore of the Garonne River (France). The bore was undular and the bore’s leading edge was followed by well-defined secondary wa...
متن کاملAtmospheric noise of a breaking tidal bore.
A tidal bore is a surge of waters propagating upstream in an estuary as the tidal flow turns to rising and the flood tide propagates into a funnel-shaped system. Large tidal bores have a marked breaking roller. The sounds generated by breaking tidal bores were herein investigated in the field (Qiantang River) and in laboratory. The sound pressure record showed two dominant periods, with some si...
متن کاملHigh-frequency turbulence and suspended sediment concentration measurements in the Garonne River tidal bore
The study details new sediment concentration measurements associated with some turbulence characterisation conducted at high-frequency in the undular tidal bore of the Garonne River (France). Acoustic Doppler velocimetry was used, and the suspended sediment concentration was deduced from the acoustic backscatter intensity. The field data set demonstrated some unique flow features of the tidal b...
