A study of swash zone sediment transport was conducted at Gleneden
Beach, Oregon during February 25-28, 1994. The data collected included suspended
sediment concentration (SSC), sea surface elevation, and velocity (initially 4 and 8
cm above the bed) at three cross-shore locations within the swash zone spanning high
tides. Ensemble...
The nonlinear dynamics of unstable alongshore currents in the nearshore
surf zone over variable barred beach topography are studied using numerical
experiments. These experiments extend the recent studies of Allen et al. [1996]
and Slnn et al. [1998], which utilized alongshore uniform beach topographies by
including sinusoidal alongshore variation to...
