Investigating the Role of Complex Sandbar Morphology on Nearshore Hydrodynamics

Creator:

Cohn, N., Ruggiero, P., Ortiz, J., and Walstra, D. J.

Abstract:

Coastal environments are characterized by complex feedbacks between flow, sediment transport, and morphology, often resulting in the formation of nearshore sandbars. In many locations, such as Hasaki (Japan), the Netherlands, and the Columbia River Littoral Cell (CRLC, USA), these sandbars exhibit a net offshore migration (NOM) cycle whereby these features...
