Book San Francisco Central Bay Suspended Sediment Movement  Report 1  Summer Condition Data Collection Program and Numerical Model Verification

Download or read book San Francisco Central Bay Suspended Sediment Movement Report 1 Summer Condition Data Collection Program and Numerical Model Verification written by and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Field data were collected on currents, salinities, and suspended sediments intensively over a lunar day and sporadically over a fortnight in September 1988 for the purpose of identifying transport processes and conditions in central San Francisco Bay and for numerical model verification. Conditions were typical of a low freshwater inflow summer season in this area. A two- dimensional horizontal finite element model was applied and verified to field and physical hydraulic model data. The model is intended for future long-term studies of the fate of dredged material dispersed from the Alcatraz disposal site. Keywords: Field tests; Currents/salinity; Transport properties; Water flow; Sediment transport; Mass flux; Numerical modeling; San Francisco Bay; Sedimentation/ deposition; Total suspended matter.

This book was released on 1996 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Field data analysis was used to examine suspended sediment transport in Central San Francisco Bay, and to develop and verify a two-dimensional numerical fine-grained sediment transport model. This study concerned the dispersion and fate of disposed dredged material in Central San Francisco Bay, California. The 1992 monitoring survey spanned a 2-week period in June, and used three boat-mounted acoustic Doppler current profiling (ADCP) systems to obtain repeated cross-sectional transects near the Golden Gate, the entrance to South Bay, and Richmond Point. Between acoustic transects, water samples were obtained over depth for salinity, total suspended material (TSM) concentration, and particle size determinations. Acoustic backscatter data were used to produce correlated suspended material concentration and flux fields. Discrete measurements were fit to empirical discharge and suspended flux models and integrated over a neap-spring-neap tidal sequence to estimate net transport. There was an observed net transport of suspended sediment seaward at the Golden Gate over the neap to spring sampling period. The total net transport was 188,000 metric tonnes seaward over 14 lunar days. Fluxes during the ebb flows averaged 44% greater than the flood flows, and instantaneous strong-ebb TSM fluxes were often more than twice those on flood tidal phases. Suspended sediment concentrations increased during the strongest part of the ebb at all Central Bay sampling ranges. Wind forcing did not appear imponant to this process. Suspended concentrations quickly returned to normal levels after the passage of peak ebb flows. Spatial variability in the TSM fields was relatively large. The ADCP backscatter intensity measurements correlated well with TSM especially on the Golden Gate range where a broadband unit was employed.

Book Summary of Suspended Sediment Concentration Data  San Francisco Bay  California  Water Year 2002

Download or read book Summary of Suspended Sediment Concentration Data San Francisco Bay California Water Year 2002 written by Paul A. Buchanan and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suspended-sediment concentration data were collected in San Francisco Bay during water year 2002 (October 1, 2001 September 30, 2002). Optical backscatterance sensors and water samples were used to monitor suspended sediment concentration at two sites in Suisun Bay, three sites in San Pablo Bay, two sites in Central San Francisco Bay, and three sites in South San Francisco Bay. Sensors were positioned at two depths at most sites. Water samples were collected periodically and analyzed for concentrations of suspended sediment. The results of the analyses were used to calibrate the electrical output of the optical backscatterance sensors so that a record of suspended sediment concentrations could be derived. This report presents the data-collection methods used and summarizes the suspended-sediment concentration data collected from October 2001 through September 2002. Calibration curves and plots of edited data for each sensor also are presented.
