Journal ArticleDOI
Do intertidal flats ever reach equilibrium
TL;DR: In this article, a 1-D cross-shore morphodynamic model was used to study the long-term behavior of the intertidal system, restricting themselves to unvegetated intertide flats that are controlled by cross-shores tidal currents and wind waves.

The influence of tides, wind and waves on the redistribution of nourished sediment at Terschelling, The Netherlands
TL;DR: Grunnet et al. as mentioned in this paper used a calibrated morphodynamic model of the barrier island of Terschelling, The Netherlands, comprising the island and its two adjacent tidal inlet systems, to identify the relative contribution of tides, wind and waves to the cross-shore and alongshore redistribution of a 2 Mm3 nourishment supplied to the nearshore zone along the island.

Intermediate modelling of tidal inlet systems: spatial asymmetries in flow and mean sediment transport
S. M. van Leeuwen,H.E. de Swart +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, experiments with a shallow water model and a sediment transport model of intermediate complexity are carried out and interpreted to identify mechanisms which determine the morphology of tidal inlet systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study on nutrient distribution and interaction with sediments in a macro-tidal estuary
TL;DR: In this article, an integrated hydro-environmental model has been developed for predicting the distribution of nutrients in estuarine and coastal waters, which considers the hydrodynamic, sediment transport, dissolved oxygen and nutrient cycling processes.
