Summary:
This project is to study the
impact of sheet flow, occurring under high wave
conditions when flow velocities at the seabed
are high, on the overall sediment
budget for a coastal area due to the very high sand
transport rates associated. This project is a collaborative
venture led by Aberdeen Univeristy in the UK and Twente
University in the Netherlands. The contribution
from the Coastal Modelling Group of Liverpool
University to the project is to provide results
from a two-phase model, developed in the
Liverpool-led LUBA project,
a recently completed collaborative project
between Universities of Liverpool, Wales
(Bangor) and Aberdeen, to assist with
parameterisation for practical model
predictions.
