This book was released on 1985 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Oregon Inlet is a large tidal inlet through the barrier island system of North Carolina. In 1970, Congress authorized the Manteo (Shallowbag) Bay project which had provisions to stabilize Oregon Inlet with two jetties, deepen the ocean bar channel to 20 ft, and bypass across the inlet sand intercepted by the jetties. This report describes the results of a numerical study to consider coastal and inlet processes in the region surrounding the inlet under existing and planned project conditions. To accomplish the objectives of the study, a system of numerical models called Coastal and Inlet Processes (CIP) Numerical Modeling System was developed. It included models for wave propagation, wave-induced currents and setup, sediment transport within and beyond the surf zone, and profile response (onshore-offshore transport). Results from a separate study on numerical simulation of tides and storm surge for Oregon Inlet were utilized in the present investigation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the improved understanding of coastal processes and the availability of very high speed computers and efficient computation techniques, it is now economically feasible to use numerical modeling systems to study the impact of large-scale engineering works on coastal processes. Such systems have the advantage that, unlike physical hydraulic and movable-bed models, once the systems are built and tested, they can be applied to different prototype sites with much less additional effort and cost. Also, they can be used to examine several different problems such as the effects of coastal structures, disposal of dredged material, modification of navigation channels, and estimating maintenance dredging requirements. In this paper, the development of one such modeling system at the US Army Engineer Waterways Experiment Station (WES), Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC), is described. The system, known as the Coastal and Inlet Processes (CIP) Modeling System, was developed in response to the long-term needs of the Corps of engineers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Mary's Inlet is the main ocean entrance to the Naval Submarine Base, Kings Bay, Georgia. In order to accommodate Trident submarines at the base, it became necessary to modify the exterior navigation channel. This report describes details of a numerical modeling effort performed to study the effect of channel modifications on coastal processes near the inlet, especially channel shoaling rates. A system of numerical models, which included models for tides, waves, wave-induced currents, and noncohesive sediment (sand) transport, was used in the study. The system, together with two computational grids, was called Model B. It was used to study existing (base) as well as planned conditions. Plan 1 is to widen the navigation channel by 100 ft, deepen the channel to -49 ft mlw (46-ft project depth plus 3-ft advance maintenance), and extend the channel on the ocean side with a 20-deg bend to the south. Model B considered the simultaneous sand-tightening of a 1,000-ft segment of the south jetty. While all four models were run for base conditions, only the tidal model and the sediment transport model were run for Plan 1 conditions to meet the urgent need for model results. Based on the model results and available information, recommendations on advance maintenance dredging are made for various reaches of the navigation channel.

Book Synopsis Measuring and Understanding Coastal Processes by : National Research Council
Download or read book Measuring and Understanding Coastal Processes written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1989-02-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of the U.S. coastline is rapidly changingâ€"mostly eroding. That fact places increasing pressure on the planners and managers responsible for coastal development and protection, and could have a direct effect on many of the 125 million Americans living within 50 miles of the coast who rely on its resources and beaches for their livelihood or recreation. Although rapid advances have been made in the measurement systems needed to understand and describe the forces and changes at work in the surf-zone environment, their potential for allowing more accurate and reliable planning and engineering responses has not been fully realized. This book assesses coastal data needs, instrumentation, and analyses, and recommends areas in which more information or better instrumentation is needed.
Book Synopsis Guide to Process Based Modeling of Lakes and Coastal Seas by : Anders Omstedt
Download or read book Guide to Process Based Modeling of Lakes and Coastal Seas written by Anders Omstedt and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of Guide to Process Based Modeling of Lakes and Coastal Seas brings the modeling up to date, taking into account multiple stressors acting on aquatic systems. The combination of acidification and increasing amounts of anoxic waters associated with eutrophication puts severe stress on the marine environment. The detection and attribution of anthropogenic changes in coastal seas are therefore crucial and transparent modeling tools are increasingly important. Modeling the marine CO2–O2 system makes systematic studies on climate change and eutrophication possible and is fundamental for understanding the Earth system. This second edition also includes new sections on detection and attribution and on modeling future changes, as well as improved exercises, updated software, and datasets. This unique book will stimulate students and researchers to develop their modeling skills and make model codes and data transparent to other research groups. It uses the general equation solver PROBE to introduce process-oriented numerical modeling and to build understanding of the subject step by step. The equation solver has been used in many applications, particularly in Sweden and Finland with their numerous lakes, archipelago seas, fjords, and coastal zones. It has also been used for process studies in the Polar Seas and the Mediterranean Sea and the approach is suitable for applications in many other environmental applications. Guide to Process Based Modeling of Lakes and Coastal Seas: • is a unique teaching tool for systematic learning of aquatic modeling; • approaches lake and ocean modeling from a new angle; • introduces aquatic numerical modeling using a process-based approach; • enables the thorough understanding of the physics and biogeochemistry of lakes and coastal seas; • provides software, datasets, and algorithms needed to reproduce all calculations and results in the book; • provides a number of creative and stimulating exercises with solutions; • addresses the interaction between climate change and eutrophication and is a good basis for learning Earth System Sciences.

Download or read book Applications in Coastal Modeling written by A.S. Trenhaile and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1989-06-01 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The importance of models to facilitate our understanding and management of the coastal system is evident from this book, which shows that the preference for using models to study the coastal system is shared not only by different research institutions (government, military, industry and academia), but also by researchers from diverse backgrounds. With contributions from several leading experts a variety of models - physical, analytical, numerical and computer simulation - are presented on various components of the coastal system. The book opens by examining the coast as a system, and provides an overview of models, systems concepts, and the systems approach. It next covers the simulation design process, stressing that modeling and simulation should form an interface between real-world processes, and the field of General Systems Theory. It is clearly shown that a system can be investigated with more than one type of model. For example, it is shown that waves can be studied with physical models, empirical and numerical models or with computer simulation models. Likewise, beaches can be investigated with physical, numerical or empirically-based models.The indispensability of models to enhance our understanding of coastal dynamics and associated component systems is emphasised. Mathematical modeling of rock coast development and the simulation of deltaic depositional systems are covered. A chapter on analytical modeling of predator-prey interactions highlights the fact that the coastal system also has biotic resources. Finally, problems which have to be overcome for the practical application of numerical and simulation models are discussed. The explanatory and detailed formulation of the various models, together with more than 100 figures, make this book worthwhile reading for senior undergraduates, graduate students, and all coastal researchers interested in the formulation and application of models of the coastal system.
