Journal ArticleDOI
Detailed Observations of Littoral Transport Using Artificial Sediment Tracer, in a High-Energy, Rocky Reef and Iron Sand Environment
Peter McComb,Kerry P. Black +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, two colors of artificial fluorescent tracer were used to investigate the sediment entrapment/bypassing of a port entrance, and to monitor sediment movement from an experimental nearshore dredged-sand dump mound (47,000 m3).
Journal ArticleDOI
Transport of suspended sediment under the dam-break flow on an inclined plane bed of arbitrary slope
TL;DR: In this article, the problem of sediment transport after the break of a dam on an inclined bed is considered and the authors use the shallow-water approximation for arbitrary, constant slopes of the bottom, taking into consideration the effect of friction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Importance of considering riparian vegetation requirements for the long-term efficiency of environmental flows in aquatic microhabitats
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the importance of considering riparian requirements for the long-term efficiency of environmental flows and assessed the corresponding fish habitat availability of three common fish species in each of the resulting riparian landscape scenarios.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical modelling of hydrodynamics and sediment transport in the surf zone : a sensitivity study with different types of numerical models
TL;DR: In this article, a comparison between two very different numerical models, Delft3D and XBeach, is presented, which is able to resolve the time dependent long waves, which are important in the surf zone.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical modeling of subaqueous sand dune morphodynamics
TL;DR: In this article, the morphodynamic evolution of subaqueous sand dunes is investigated using a 2D Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes numerical model, and the results show good agreement in terms of dune geometrical dimensions and time to equilibrium.
