Zhu, C. (author), van Maren, D.S. (author), Guo, Leicheng (author), Lin, J. (author), He, Qing (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author)The mechanisms controlling the formation of an estuarine turbidity maximum (ETM) in estuaries have been extensively investigated, but one aspect that has received much less scientific attention is the role of high suspended sediment concentrations in combination with tidal asymmetry in ETM formation. Particularly in highly turbid estuaries,...journal article 2022

Guo, Leicheng (author), Wang, Zhengbing (author), Townend, Ian (author), He, Qing (author)Tidal wave deformation and tidal asymmetry widely occur in tidal estuaries and lagoons. Tidal asymmetry has been intensively studied because of its controlling role on residual sediment transport and largeāscale morphological evolution. There are several methods available to characterize tidal asymmetry prompting the need for an overview of...journal article 2019

Winterwerp, J.C. (author)This paper describes an analysis of the observed up-river transport of fine sediments in the Ems River, Germany/Netherlands, using a 1DV POINT MODEL, accounting for turbulence-induced flocculation and sediment-induced buoyancy destruction. From this analysis, it is inferred that the net up-river transport is mainly due to an asymmetry in...journal article 2010

Chernetsky, A.S. (author), Schuttelaars, H.M. (author), Talke, S.A. (author)Over decades and centuries, the mean depth of estuaries changes due to sea-level rise, land subsidence, infilling, and dredging projects. These processes produce changes in relative roughness (friction) and mixing, resulting in fundamental changes in the characteristics of the horizontal (velocity) and vertical tides (sea surface elevation) and...journal article 2010
