Sediment resuspension, settling, and transport : results, needs, and future directions at NWRI : minutes of a workshop held at the NWRI, May 30/86 / by F.M. Boyce, P.F. Hamblin, and M. Skafel.: En13-5/86-18E-PDF

"It has been recognized at NWRI for some time that sediment transport processes outside the surf zone were important but largely unstudied ... Experience has been slowly accumulated at NWRI, and we are ready to proceed vigorously. In this workshop we propose to review NWRI experience in estimating sediment fluxes and in accounting for resuspension. We seek guidance in formulating a physical research program that meets the needs of other disciplines in the NWRI program areas. The Upper Great Lakes Connecting Channel Study in Lake St. Clair provides a focus for these discussions"--Introd.
