Field Investigations of Underwater Mounds Formed by Hopper Dredge Discharges in a Coastal Environment

In a coastal environment, this paper investigated the formation process and the cumulative shape of subaqueous mounds formed by hopper dredged discharges. Hydrological observations and field tests were performed to examine the flow features and ultimately generated morphology characteristics. A high...
