Sediment transport beneath an undular hydraulic jump

Creator:: Broome, Robert
Abstract:: Field observations are made of the formation of backwash ripples on the beachface, formed by undular hydraulic jumps generated by backwash down the beach face colliding with wave bores. Measured ripple wavelengths range from set averages of 48 to 70 cm. Within a particular set of ripples there is a...

Sediment transport and channel morphology in a small mountain stream in Western Oregon

Creator:: Edwards, Richard Earl
Abstract:: Sediment transport measurements on Flynn Creek, a headwater stream in the Oregon Coast Range, have illustrated the magnitude of fluvial transfer processes, primarily of the bedload component, during a moderate storm runoff season (1979 water year). The total dissolved solids concentration of storm runoff averaged 40 mg/L, and was independent...

Development of a Cartesian-grid-based solver for an oscillatory boundary layer over a rough wall

Creator:: Skitka, Joseph M.
Abstract:: Predominant models for predicting rates of sediment transport face acute shortcomings when applied to coastal boundary layers. This is due to a neglect of the web of stochastic variables governing the rate of sediment dislodgement. While stochastic models do exist, the parametric extent of their validity tends to be limited,...

Sediment routing in a small watershed in the blast zone at Mount St. Helens, Washington

Creator:: Smith, Richard D. (Richard Dean), 1950-
Abstract:: A descriptive model of the routing of sediment that was delivered to the study area by the 1980 eruptions of Mount St. Helens has been developed. On hillslopes this sediment was distributed among three major storage compartments: 1) the tephra profile, 2) primary storage, and 3) secondary storage. The most...

Bedload sediment transport and channel morphology of a southeast Alaskan stream

Creator:: Estep, Margaret A.
Abstract:: This study was conducted at portions of Trap Bay Creek, a medium-sized third-order stream on Chichagof Island, Southeast Alaska, to 1) quantify short-term sediment transport and channel morphology changes, 2) relate measured sediment transport rates to the major hydrologic parameters that appeared to determine the mechanisms of sediment transport, and...

Sediment storage in a headwater valley of the Oregon Coast Range : erosion rates and styles and valley-floor capacitance

Creator:: Casebeer, Nathan E.
Abstract:: This study is part of the effort to quantify sediment budgets and understand the geomorphic evolution of steep mountains where debris flows are the dominant agent of upland erosion. Observations indicate that headwater basins in the Oregon Coast Range (OCR) can store a large amount of sediment, mostly from debris...

Swash zone sediment suspension and transport

Creator:: Puleo, Jack A.
Abstract:: Swash zone processes are of significant importance to foreshore morphologic change. This thesis addresses the importance of the uprush and backwash fluid motions and flow duration effects to the resulting sediment transport. The analysis relates the field observations to well known sediment transport formulations as well as investigates the importance...
