Abstract
ABSTRACT Shaeri, S.; Strauss, D.; Etemad-Shahidi, A., and Tomlinson, R., 2018. Hydrosedimentological modelling of a small, trained tidal inlet system, Currumbin Creek, southeast Queensland, Australia. Small tidal inlets with an entrance width of less than 50 m or a cross-sectional area of less than 100 m2 have not been investigated as often as their larger counterparts. To discern the major processes responsible for entrance infilling in a small inlet system, the hydrosedimentological processes in the annually dredged Currumbin Creek (Australia) inlet system were investigated. Delft3D was applied and validated using local field measurements and regional data. A standalone regional hydrodynamic model and three nested standalone wave models provided detailed data for the offshore boundary of the more detailed creek entrance model, which was a coupled, local flow–wave–sediment transport model. The noncohesive sediment transport module was calibrated based on the volume of dredging and the net annual volume o...
