Waves, Currents, and Bathymetric Evolution Near an Inlet

Abstract

The long-term objective is to develop field-verified models for the wave fields, circulation patterns, and morphological evolution near inlets and river mouths. Our approach is to collect and analyze field observations of waves, currents, winds, and bathymetry to test hypotheses and to calibrate, evaluate, and improve numerical models.
