Abstract

Abstract : The scientific objective of this research was to understand the processes of small-scale sediment transport with the emphasis on the resuspension and vertical distribution of suspended sediment by turbulence, bottom boundary layer fluid- sediment interactions associated with large scale fluid forcing, and connections between spatial gradients in sediment flux and morphology change. Investigations during this grant period concentrated on the processes of transport related to vertical distribution of suspended sediment by turbulent forces generated by both surface-wave breaking and boundary shear flows.
