Opening and closure of intermittently open natural inlets

Tidal inlet systems are found all over the world. These highly dynamic coastal features can be classified into three main types wave-dominated, tide-dominated or river-dominated tidal inlet systems. A tidal inlet is described as an opening in the shoreline that provides a connection between the ocean and a bay and is maintained by tidal currents...

Equilibrium and stability of a double inlet system

Barrier island coasts are a common feature in many parts of the world. An example is the Wadden coast of The Netherlands, Germany and Denmark. These coasts consist of barrier islands separated by tidal inlets with at the landward side tidal basins.Characteristic for the Wadden Sea is that the tidal basins are not completely separated,but are...

Tidal inlets on littoral drift shores

After consulting the "Department of Environment" in Australia it was suggested that an extensive generic study about Tidal Inlets on Littoral drift shores gives them an insight in the processes at work and also the possibilities to improve the stability in order to make tidal inlets suitable for safe navigation. This report describes the most...

Morphodynamic computations under tidal conditions: A Survey of Simplified Solution Techniques

In this report a model has been derived to simulate morphological behaviour under tidal conditions. The model is based on the set of equations of motion and mass-balance for both water and sediment. The study focused on the underlying assumption that the kinematic response of the water movement on the bottom variation is much stronger than the...
