Numerical modelling of sediment transport under waves and currents in estuaries

The movement of sediments in estuaries frequently causes problems. Any engineering works undertaken in any estuary may affect the pattern of sediment erosion or deposition and lead to beneficial or deleterious affects at locations throughout the estuary, occasionally at places remote from the site of the original engineering works. The work should aid in the development of numerical models to predict the behaviour in estuaries under the action of both waves and currents.
