| Abstract | A simulation model is developed to predict the daily change of the width of rivermouth. The basic equation is the equation of continuity with the assumptions that the river and
tidal discharges flushing sediments out from the river-mouth and that the wave induced current
bringing sediments into the river.
The equation of continuity is reduced to a simplified equation to predict the change
of width of the river-mouth width, by introducing two coefficients of sediment transport. One
for the sediment transport due to discharges and the other due to wave induced currents.
The value of the coefficients are determined so as to minimize the discrepancy between .
measured and calculated results. |
