A model for fluvial bedrock incision by impacting suspended and bed load sediment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
A mechanistic model is derived for the rate of fluvial erosion into bedrock by abrasion from uniform size particles that impact the bed during transport in both bed and suspended load.

Paleogeographic numerical modeling of marginal seas for the Holocene – an exemplary study of the Baltic Sea [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Dynamics
The sustainable management of marginal seas is based on a thorough understanding of their evolutionary trends in the past. The paleogeographic evolution of marginal seas is controlled not only by global and regional driving forces (eustatic sea-level ...

Wave simulation for the design of an innovative quay wall: the case of Vlorë Harbour [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017
Sea states and environmental conditions are basic data for the design of marine structures. Hindcasted wave data have been applied here with the aim of identifying the proper design conditions for an innovative quay wall concept.

Sediment transport trend and its influencing factors in coastal bedrock island sea areas-a case study of Chudao island, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Coastal bedrock islands sea areas have a unique natural environment, frequent human activities, and complex sedimentary dynamic processes. In this paper, we select the Chudao Island sea area off the coast of Shandong Peninsula, China, as a typical ...

Numerical Simulation of Slope–Gully–Stream Sediment Transport Process with Water and Gravity Erosion

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
Soil erosion has become a global problem with serious consequences. It is the source of sediment in rivers, and the subsequent sediment transport is important.

Effects of temperature on in vitro sediment reworking processes by a gallery biodiffusor, the polychaete Neanthes virens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Temperature-induced variations in bioturbation could affect sediment mixing processes in the marine benthic environment. In this study, sediment reworking by Neanthes virens (Sars), a widely distributed polychaete in muddy sand communities of northern ...

Influence of Beach Slope on Morphological Changes and Sediment Transport under Irregular Waves

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
This paper presents new data from large-scale wave flume experiments. It shows the beach profile evolution and sediment transport for two different bed slopes (1:15 and 1:25), and three irregular high-energy erosive wave conditions and one low-energy ...

Development of the Gravel Pressure and Voice Synchronous Observation System and Application in Bedload Transport Measurement

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Bedload sediment transport is critical in the natural river environmental and ecological system. It is quite challenging to measure the bedload sediment transport rate in rivers with any degree of accuracy. In this study, the authors developed the Gravel

Modeling the spatially distributed nature of subglacial sediment transport and erosion [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics, 2023
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 ...
