Book Synopsis Sediment Budget Analysis Wrightsville Beach to Kure Beach, North Carolina by : J. T. Jarrett
Download or read book Sediment Budget Analysis Wrightsville Beach to Kure Beach, North Carolina written by J. T. Jarrett. This book was released on 1978. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Littoral transport rates and inlet bypassing quantities were estimated for a 19-mile (30.6 km) segment of the North Carolina coast extending from Wrightsville Beach southward to Kure Beach, by adopting a sediment budget approach. The steps involved in the sediment budget analysis were: (a) an estimate of volumetric changes along the shorelines and in the inlets, (b) wave refraction analysis to determine the distribution of longshore wave energy flux along the shoreline and, (c) a correlation of the volume changes with the computed longshore energy flux distribution. The base period used for this analysis was from 1966 to 1974. After the material transport rates were determined for this base period, an evaluation was made of the changes in shore processes resulting from man-induced alterations in the shoreline configuration. The major manmade alterations along this segment of the coast include the artificial opening of Carolina Beach Inlet in 1952 and the construction of the north jetty at Masonboro Inlet in 1966.

Book Synopsis Analysis of Coastal Sediment Transport Processes from Wrightsville Beach to Fort Fisher, North Carolina by : T. C. Winton
Download or read book Analysis of Coastal Sediment Transport Processes from Wrightsville Beach to Fort Fisher, North Carolina written by T. C. Winton. This book was released on 1981. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive engineering analysis of the coastal sediment transport processes along a 42-kilometer segment of the North Carolina shoreline from Wrightsville Beach to Fort Fisher is presented. Included in the analysis is an interpretation of the littoral processes, longshore transport, and the behavior and success of beach nourishment projects at Wrightsville Beach and Carolina Beach, North Carolina. The historical position of the MLW, MSL, and MHW contours, relative to a fixed base line, is plotted for the period between 1964 and 1975. An equivalent volumetric erosion or accretion between successive surveys is determined by multiplying the average excursion distance of the contours by a constant of proportionality. The plots of excursion distance versus time for the MLW, MSL, and MHW contours also show the time response of the beach fills. This response is described by a mathematical function. The alongshore components of wave-induced energy flux are also determined within the study area through wave refraction analysis. This information, together with the information on volumetric change, is used in a sediment budget analysis to determine the coefficient of alongshore sediment transport and the inlet trapping characteristics.
