International Collaboration on Local Sand Transport Processes and Morphological Evolution

Abstract

To develop and enhance international collaboration in the area of coastal sediment transport processes. The primary objectives of our collaboration are to further the theoretical and experimental investigations of the smaller-scale physical processes which must be incorporated in the development of a local model for sand transport and morphological evolution in coastal regions, including bedform prediction, local boundary layer hydrodynamics and a description of sediment dynamics covering the region from the immobile seabed to the overlying dilute suspension, incorporating both bedload and suspended load modes of sand transport.
