Transport and Morphodynamics in a Fine Sediment Estuary: From Conceptual Understanding to Numerical Modeling

This dissertation presents a study of fine sediment transport and morphodynamics in estuarine settings using data from the Lower Passaic River (LPR), located in New Jersey, USA. Originally a relatively shallow system, it has been dredged and deepened for navigation purposes from the late-1800s onwards, along with other modifications such as...
