Book Description
This book investigates the formation of subaqueous patterns by means of high-fidelity numerical simulations which resolve all the relevant scales of the flow and the sediment bed. This is required to provide a space- and time-resolved information on the flow field and the sediment bed. Secondly, detailed analysis of the generated data allows to address the different governing mechanisms involved in the formation of patterns as well as to access the validity of various existing models.

Turbulent coherent structures, Secondary currents and Sediment ridges
Author: Scherer, Markus Maximilian
Publisher: KIT Scientific Publishing
ISBN: 3731513188
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
The origin of secondary currents and subaqueous sediment patterns in natural rivers is analysed from first principles. For this purpose, simulations of sediment transport in canonical turbulent open channel flows are performed using a numerical technique that resolves all relevant flow scales and the dynamics of the individual sand grains. The high-fidelity datasets reveal the fundamental importance of individual coherent structures for the development of sediment patterns and secondary flows.

A hydrodynamical perspective on the turbulent transport of bacteria in rivers
Author: Krayer, Michael Werner Tobias
Publisher: KIT Scientific Publishing
ISBN: 3731513102
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
The transport of bacteria in turbulent river-like environments is addressed, where bacterial populations are frequently encountered attached to solids. This transport mode is investigated by studying the transient settling of heavy particles in turbulent channel flows featuring sediment beds. A numerical method is used to fully resolve turbulence and finite-size particles, which enables the assessment of the complex interplay between flow structures, suspended solids and river sediment.

Sedimentary Processes and Pelagic Turbidites in the Eastern Central Pacific Basin
Author: Patrick H. Lineberger
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Marine sediment
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
Analysis of sediment cores from an area of the eastern Central Pacific basin revealed varied characteristics of the cores and associated acoustical properties of the sediments that enabled the study area to be divided into five provinces. Two of the provinces, one consisting of acoustically highly transparent siliceous ooze and the other of highly stratified calcareous ooze, are separated by a third, a siliceous-calcareous transition zone. A fourth province consists of partially eroded, highly stratified sediments of Tertiary age which are unconformably overlain by a thin, transparent siliceous ooze of Quaternary age. The fifth province consists of channels arranged in a distributary-like pattern that contain highly stratified sediments incised into surrounding transparent siliceous sediments. Surface sediment distribution was generally consistent with the calcite compensation depth of about 5000 meters.

Theoretical Morphodynamics: Straight Channels
Author: Giovanni Seminara
Publisher: Firenze University Press
ISBN:
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 380
Book Description
This monograph presents the mechanistic foundations of the theory of Morhodynamics, a discipline that investigates the shape of the erodible boundary of natural water bodies. We focus on the fluvial Morphodynamics of straight erodible channels, providing the basis for subsequent extensions to meandering rivers (treated in the companion monograph 2 of this series) and braided rivers. We present basic notions on the Mechanics of Turbulent Flows and Sediment Transport in straight open channels with mobile beds. We then investigate their morphodynamic equilibrium and its instability, that leads to the formation of a variety of bedforms observed in natural rivers. In particular, fluvial bars will deserve special attention as the fundamental building block of large scale fluvial patterns.

Book Description
The application of multibeam and sediment transport measurement technologies and the adoption of multi-faceted research methodologies have greatly advanced our understanding of the sedimentary processes on continental shelves in the last decade. This book uniquely blends cutting-edge research and state-of-the art review articles that take stock of new advances in multibeam mapping and sediment transport technologies, spatial analysis and modelling, and the applications of these advances to the understanding of shelf sediments, morphodynamics, and sedimentary processes. Case studies are also presented to illustrate the utilization of seabed property and process knowledge in habitat mapping and ocean management With its mix of papers focusing on technological advances, integration of shelf morphology and processes, and the application of these advances to coastal and ocean management, this Special Publication volume will serve as a milestone reference for professional marine scientists and as advanced text for students in marine geology, sedimentology and oceanography. This book is part of the International Association of Sedimentologists (IAS) Special Publications. The Special Publications from the IAS are a set of thematic volumes edited by specialists on subjects of central interest to sedimentologists. Papers are reviewed and printed to the same high standards as those published in the journal Sedimentology and several of these volumes have become standard works of reference.
