Written for anyone interested in coastal geomorphology, this is the complete guide to the
processes at work on our coastlines and the resulting features seen in coastal systems …

ABSTRACT The 40‐km‐long, Cobequid Bay—Salmon River estuary has a maximum tidal
range of 16· 3 m and experiences limited wave action. Sediment, which is derived primarily …

The purpose of this book is to give an introduction to the most important aspects of
suspended matter in the aquatic environment: its origin and composition, the concentration …

A review is given of aggregation phenomena for fine-grained sediments in estuarine
systems. Besides other important factors it is shown that the aggregation of fine sediment …

In situ measurements of the erodibility of fine-grained sediments have been made in two
regions of the Bay of Fundy using the benthic annular flume, Sea Carousel. The regions …

The vertical accretion of salt marshes is mainly due to flow reduction and wave damping by
vegetation. However, the details of the hydrodynamics are only partially understood, and …

In the inner part of the macrotidal, Cobequid Bay-Salmon River estuary, the fundamental
sedimentation unit in the mixed flats and mud flats is a sand-mud couplet that is deposited …

Publisher Summary In this chapter the term “Tidal Flats”, defines tidal flat as “sandy to muddy
or marshy flats emerging during low tide and submerging during high tide”. This definition …

Sediment gravity flows are ubiquitous agents of transport, erosion, and deposition across
Earth's surface, including terrestrial debris flows, snow avalanches, and submarine turbidity …

The sediment transport model SEDTRANS has been significantly upgraded based on new
advances in both cohesive and non-cohesive sediment transport studies. For given input …
