Abstract:
Evaluating the local sediment balance is a crucial component of effective coastal erosion management. Traditionally, we set a depth of closure in a target coastal area, representing the point beyond which sediment transport is assumed to be minimal. This concept helps us maintain the assumption that the sediment budget remains balanced landward. However, during extreme events, sediment transport can exceed this depth, leading to a loss of coastal sediments. This scenario is particularly relevant for coasts adjacent to a steep offshore slope, where sediments released onto the slope may never re

Suspended and bedload transport dynamics on rivers draining glacierized basins depend on complex processes of runoff generation together with the degree of sediment connectivity and coupling at the basin scale.

Aeolian processes involve wind-driven emission, transport, and deposition of sand and dust, with sediment transport serving as a key source of sediment for coastal sand dunes. However, beaches today are increasingly out of equilibrium due to human activities, such as coastal development and climate change, which disrupt natural sediment dynamics and lead to localized erosion and accretion along coasts. This imbalance calls for comprehensive strategies to restore and maintain beach system stability. As predicting sediment transport rates is crucial for determining dune sediment budgets, it is e

As sea levels rise many coastal areas are predicted to experience beach erosion.

Abstract:
AbstractAccurately assessing the response of sediments to oscillatory flows requires high-resolution fluid velocity and sediment transport measurements at the fluid–sediment interface. Fluid and sediment grain velocities were measured simultaneously with combined particle image and tracking velocimetry under oscillatory flows over movable sand ripples. Three high-speed cameras equipped with varying optical filters were used to distinguish between fluorescent fluid tracers and the grains, from which the fluid and grain velocities were determined, respectively. Individual grains were tracked dur

Abstract:
Rainwater tanks are being introduced into urban areas in Australia to supplement centralised potable supply systems. A pilot scale tank study and a full-scale field tank study found that heavy metal concentrations in water samples taken from the tank's supply point can, in some cases, exceed levels recommended by guidelines. Both studies also found very high concentrations of heavy metals in the sediments accumulated at the base of rainwater tanks. Laboratory experiments are underway to investigate sediment transport processes within a full-scale tank. Preliminary results demonstrate the effec

Abstract:
The ecological dynamics of riparian areas interact with sediment transport in river systems, which plays an active role in riparian vegetation growth in the floodplain. The fluvial dynamics, hydraulics, hydro-meteorological and geomorphological characteristics of rivers are associated with sediment transport in river systems and around the riparian area. The flood disturbance, sediment with nutrients and seeds transported by river, sediment deposition, and erosion phenomena in the floodplain change the bare land area to vegetation area and vice versa.

Abstract:
A new method is introduced by using high precision accelerometer and gyroscope micro-electromechanical sensors (MEMS), which can record Lagrangian observations of sediments and shed light into the dynamics of sediment transport processes at above threshold conditions. The sensor can be used under a range of well-controlled flow conditions and can record measurements at high frequency (200 Hz), which can be used at the field. The smart sphere performance was evaluated by comparing its rotation and acceleration readings from the sensors to the video recordings of both top and underwater high-spe

Abstract:
Due to economic growth, Lagos Harbour is expanding. Capital dredging is needed to allow larger vessels to call the port. As harbour siltation is already a problem, increase of maintenance dredging is a worry. In the past no data was available to understand the hydraulics and sediment transport to estimate maintenance dredging volumes. This paper presents the reconnaissance of the sediment dynamics in the harbour, based on field data and MIKE21 model simulations.

Abstract:
The subsurface region where river water and groundwater actively mix (the hyporheic zone) plays an important role in conservative and reactive solute transport along rivers. Deposits of high-conductivity (K) sediments along rivers can strongly control hyporheic processes by channeling flow along preferential flow paths wherever they intersect the channel boundary. Our goal is to understand how sediment heterogeneity influences conservative and sorptive solute transport within hyporheic zones containing high- and low-K sediment facies types.

Three distinct sediment processes, suspended sediment transport, bedload transport, and deposited bed morphology, are incorporated into a free surface flow solver, interFoam.

Abstract:
Mountain rivers exhibit sediment transport rate fluctuations that often cover more than two orders of magnitude. Bedform migration is often cited as the key process that causes giant fluctuations in the sediment transport rate. To quantify the effect of bedform migration on transport rate, we ran laboratory experiments in a 19-m long 60-cm wide flume with well-sorted gravel bed. At the flume inlet, the water discharge and the particle flux were kept constant. Experiments were conducted over long times (typically > 500 h). Sediment transport rate was monitored at the flume outlet using accel

Hurricanes are recognized as a strong forcing in changing coastal morphology by redistributing sediments. Barrier islands protect estuaries from storm surge and severe waves and confine water and sediment discharge into estuaries during a hurricane event.

The impacts of barrier islands degradation on hurricane hydrodynamics and sediment dynamics were evaluated by comparing a hypothetical model configuration for four major barrier islands in Terrebonne Bay and Barataria Bay against a

Abstract. River sediments falling dry at low water levels are sources of CO2 to the atmosphere. While the general relevance of CO2 emissions from dry sediments has been acknowledged and some regulatory mechanisms have been identified, knowledge on mechanisms and temporal dynamics is still sparse. Using a combination of high-frequency measurements and two field campaigns we thus aimed to identify processes responsible for CO2 emissions and to assess temporal dynamics of CO2 emissions from dry sediments at a large German river.

Cheniers are important for stabilising mud-dominated coastlines. A chenier is a body of wave-reworked, coarse-grained sediment consisting of sand and shells overlying a muddy substrate. In this paper we present and analyse a week of field observations of the dynamics of a single chenier along the coast of Demak, Indonesia. Despite relatively calm hydrodynamics during the one-week observational period, the chenier migrated surprisingly fast in the landward direction. The role of the tide and waves on the cross-shore chenier dynamics is explored using velocity moments as a proxy for the sediment

Abstract. Glaciers expel sediment as they melt, in addition to ice and water. As a result, changing glacier dynamics and melt produce changes to glacier erosion and sediment discharge, which can impact the landscape surrounding retreating glaciers, as well as communities and ecosystems downstream. Currently, numerical models that transport subglacial sediment on sub-hourly to decadal scales are one-dimensional, usually along a glacier's flow line. Such models have proven useful in describing the formation of glacial landforms, the impact of sediment transport on glacier dynamics, and the inter

The results reveal that the studied estuary remains well mixed during spring tides from 2013–2022 despite its microtidal regime.
