Erosion Stability of Wide-Graded Quarry-Stone Material under Unidirectional Current

TL;DR: In this article, a wide-graded quarry-stone mixture consisting of crushed granodiorite (Jelsa quarry, Norway) with fractions ranging from 0.063 to 200 mm was exposed to an incrementally increased unidirectional current in a closed-circuit flume.

Wave-Induced Distribution of Microplastic in the Surf Zone

TL;DR: In this paper, the wave-induced distribution of 13 microplastic (MP) samples of different size, shape and density was investigated in a wave flume with a sandy mobile beach bed profile.

Event deposits of intense typhoons in the muddy wedge of the East China Sea over the past 150 years

TL;DR: In this paper, two sediment cores through the muddy wedge of the inner shelf were analyzed systematically, and the high-resolution sedimentary records of the cores were reconstructed by combining 210Pb and 137Cs isotopic dating.

Modeling sediment transport and delta morphology on the dammed elwha river, washington state, usa

TL;DR: In this paper, a process-based hydrodynamic and sediment transport model is proposed to predict sediment transport pathways and delta morphological response to changes in sediment supply in a mixed sediment system.
