A comprehensive sediment budget for the Mississippi Barrier Islands

In order to conceive any realistic plan for post-Katrina island restoration, it is necessary to understand the physical processes that move sand along the littoral drift zone off the coast of Mississippi. This littoral zone influences the character of the Mississippi barrier islands as they exist in an ever changing cycle. To help in this...

Implementation, validation and evaluation of a Quasi-3D model in Delft3D.

In almost every coastal engineering problem, morphological changes play an important role. To understand and predict morphological changes, numerical models such as Delft3D are often used. In the last couple of years the time scale of interest has increased considerably. Due to the large calibration effort and especially the large computational...
