Fluid-Sediment Interactions in the Nearshore

Abstract

The immediate objectives of this project are to examine the importance of various time and space scales of sediment transport in the context of morphology change. In particular, this research will attempt to partition sediment transport into compartments of different temporal scales and to examine how this partitioning varies as a function of incident forcing, location within the surf zone and vertical position.
