Book Tidal Prism   Inlet Area Relationships

Download or read book Tidal Prism Inlet Area Relationships written by James T. Jarrett and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tidal prism - inlet area relationships for inlets on sandy coast established by M.P. O'Brien (1931 and 1969) were reanalyzed using his data and data published by other investigators. In addition, tidal prism and inlet cross-sectional area data developed in the Inlet Classification Study were also used. These data result in a total of 162 data points for 108 inlets--59 located on the Atlantic coast, 24 on the Gulf coast, and 25 on the Pacific coast of the United States. The data are grouped into three main categoriesL (1) all inlets, (2) unjettied and single-jettied inlets, and (3) inlets with two jetties. Regression analysis was performed on each set of data to determine the equations of best fit and to establish 95% confidence limits for the equations and the constants in the equations. The results of the regression analysis indicate that the tidal prism - inlet area relationship is not a unique function for all inlets but varies depending on inlet location and whether or not the inlet has been stabilized with a dual jetty system.

Book Tidal Prism area Relationship in a Model Inlet

Download or read book Tidal Prism area Relationship in a Model Inlet written by I. V. Nayak and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study attempts to relate some of the variables that influence the behavior of tidal inlets, especially the tidal prism-area relationship for a model-size inlet which was investigated for the cases of: (a) no jetties (b) twin jetties. The results are compared with published data from field and model studies and are found to be fair in agreement. (Author).

Book Tidal Inlet Equilibrium Area Experiments  Inlet Laboratory Investigations

Download or read book Tidal Inlet Equilibrium Area Experiments Inlet Laboratory Investigations written by William C. Seabergh and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was designed to examine the relationship among channel area, tidal period, tidal prism, and maximum channel velocity. Movable-bed model experiments were run to define an equilibrium area for different tidal periods and sediments. The magnitude of the areas measured provided additional data for the relationship of the tidal prism versus minimum channel area in a size range slightly larger than previous laboratory data in the continuum to very large field inlets. These data may help define the tidal prism-minimum channel cross-sectional area relationship in the midrange channel size.

This book was released on 2011-04-21 with total page 2751 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This proceedings contains nearly 200 papers on cutting-edge research presented at the seventh international Symposium on Coastal Engineering and Science of Coastal Sediment Processes, held May 2-6, 2011, in Miami, Florida, USA. This technical specialty conference was devoted to promoting an interdisciplinary exchange of state-of-the-art knowledge among researchers in the fields of coastal engineering, geology, oceanography, and related disciplines, with a theme of bringing together theory and practice.Focusing on the physical aspects of sediment processes in various coastal environments, this three-volume conference proceedings provides findings from the latest research and newest engineering applications. Session topics cover a wide range including barrier-island morphodynamics and evolution, beach nourishment and shore protection, coastal dunes, cohesive sediment transport, field and laboratory measurements of sediment transport processes and numerical modeling, gravel transport, large-scale and long-term coastal changes, LiDAR and remote sensing, longshore and cross-shore sediment transport, marsh and wetlands, regional sediment management, river deltas, sea-level changes, shelf and sand bodies, shoreline changes, tidal inlets and navigation channels. A special session on recent research findings at the Northern Gulf of Mexico is also included.
