CEE 262G: Sediment Transport Physics and Modeling (OCEANS 262G)
Course Description
Mechanics of sediment transport in rivers, estuaries and coastal oceans, with an emphasis on understanding the fundamental flow physics and subsequent transport of the underlying sediment. Topics include sediment dynamics in steady- and wave-driven bottom boundary layers, incipient motion, bedform dynamics, suspended and bed-load transport, and cohesive sediment.
