The Role of Surges During Periods of Very Shallow Water on Sediment Transport Over Tidal Flats

The Role of Surges During Periods of Very Shallow Water on Sediment Transport Over Tidal Flats

Periods of very shallow water (water depth in the order of 10 cm) occur daily on tidal flats because of the propagation of tides over very gently sloping beds, leading to distinct morphodynamical phenomena. To improve the understanding of the characteristics of velocity and suspended sediment concen...
