COHESIVE SEDIMENT TRANSPORT I: PROCESS DESCRIPTION
This paper reviews basic process-related aspects with emphasis on process descriptions associated with physical states and processes governing estuarial cohesive sediment transport, and the process characterizations relevant to hydraulic engineering practice. Reference is made to parameters which characterize sediment. Definitions and measuring techniques for suspension concentration, and for the bottom boundary or bed, important both to modelers of sediment transport as well as to ship navigation, are considered. Data requirements for estimation of erosion/sedimentation, with reference to available information and research needs are also considered.
