Hydrodynamic & Sediment
Transport Analysis

Figure 6. Results of hydrodynamic
and sediment transport process analysis.
(a) Wave climate for the
mouth of Narragansett Bay, wave height vs. cumulative
probability greater than,
(b) Wave climate of the
mouth of Narragansett Bay, wave period vs. wave height,
(c) Tidal currents (cm/s)
at I m above the bed for the sand (TVs 1) and mud (TVm 1)
experimental sites,
(d) Probability of sediment
erosion at the sand and mud experimental sites based on the
critical erosion velocities
(cm/s), and maximum bottom velocities (cni/s) vs. the
cumulative probability
greater than. |
