Artificial structures steer morphological development of salt marshes: a model study

TL;DR: In this article, a morphological model (Delft3D Flexible Mesh) was applied, which enabled the analysis of various artificial structures with realistic representation to steer the morphological development of salt marshes.

Sediment flux based model of instantaneous sediment transport due to pure velocity-skewed oscillatory sheet flow with boundary layer stream

TL;DR: In this article, an approximate model for instantaneous sediment transport resulting from exponential profiles of sediment concentration and velocity over a mobile bed is studied by modeling the phase lag effect and asymmetry in wave friction factor, oscillatory flow orbital amplitude, roughness height, bed shear stress and wave boundary layer thickness.

Experimental Study of Erosion Threshold of Reconstituted Sediments

TL;DR: In this article, a dimensionless threshold shear stress t is proposed to quantify the shear strength of these reconstituted mixtures, coupled with variation of coarse particle size, to illustrate the trend of erosion threshold of the four mixtures as a function of mud weight content.

Modeling the sediment dynamics in the gulf of Urabá, colombian Caribbean sea

TL;DR: In this article, a 3D sediment transport model was proposed to describe seasonal sediment concentration patterns in the Atrato River turbid plume and the littoral drift in the gulf of Uraba.
