Effects of storm waves on rapid deposition of sediment in the Yangtze Estuary channel

Show other versions (1)

Recent research on short-term topographic change in the Yangtze Estuary channel under storm surge conditions is briefly summarized. The mild-slope, Boussinesq and action balance equations are compared and analyzed. The action balance equation, SWAN, was used as a wave numerical model to forecast str...
