Fine sediment resuspension dynamics in a large semi-enclosed bay 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A field study was conducted to investigate fine sediment resuspension dynamics in Moreton Bay, a large semi-enclosed bay situated in South East Queensland, Australia. One S4ADW current meter and three OBS sensors were used to collect the field data on tides, mean currents, waves and suspended sediment concentrations in a mean water depth of 6.1 m for about 3 weeks. Two small cleaning units were specially designed to automatically clean the OBS sensors several times every hour to avoid biological growth on the OBS sensors. Based on the collected field data, the main driving force for fine sediment resuspension is found to be the storm wind-waves generated locally in the Bay, not the tidal current or penetrated ocean swell. The critical wind-wave orbital velocity for sediment resuspension was determined to be Urms=7 cm/s and the critical bed shear stress τcr=0.083–0.095 Pa at this study site. 相似文献

Impact of sea breeze on wind-seas off Goa, west coast of India 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
After withdrawal of the Indian Summer Monsoon and until onset of the next monsoon, i.e., roughly during November–May, winds
in the coastal regions of India are dominated by sea breeze. It has an impact on the daily cycle of the sea state near the
coast. The impact is quite significant when large scale winds are weak. During one such event, 1–15 April 1997, a Datawell
directional waverider buoy was deployed in 23 m water depth off Goa, west coast of India. Twenty-minute averaged spectra,
collected once every three hours, show that the spectrum of sea-breeze-related ‘wind-seas’ peaked at 0.23 ±0.05 Hz. These
wind-seas were well separated from swells of frequencies less than 0.15 Hz. The TMA spectrum (Bouwset al 1985) matched the observed seas spectra very well when the sea-breeze was active and the fetch corresponding to equilibrium
spectrum was found to be 77±43 km during such occasions. We emphasize on the diurnal cycle of sea-breeze-related sea off the
coast of Goa and write an equation for the energy of the seas as a function of the local wind 相似文献
