The Coastal Hydrodynamics & Sediment Dynamics Program aims to better understand fundamental aspects of coastal and estuarine physics with additional emphasis on processes responsible for sediment resuspension, transport and deposition. Ongoing topics of interest include morphologic controls on estuarine physical oceanography, wave and tidal boundary layers, interactions between thermohaline and sediment-induced stratification, and hydrodynamics and sediment dynamics of tidal marsh-lagoon systems. Our technical approach involves field work, analytical theory, numerical modeling and the intersection of all three in the utilization of coastal observation and prediction systems.
