Conference Scope

INTERCOH 2003 welcomes all study topics related to the transport of fine sediments. The following is a list of some of the relevant topic areas:
  • Physical processes related to erosion, transport, flocculation, deposition, particle interaction, and consolidation of fine sediments.

  • Field and laboratory studies on the above mentioned processes.

  • Field measurements of turbulent structure affecting the distribution of suspended fine sediments.

  • Numerical modeling of the transport of fine sediments including prediction of turbidity maxima, sediment induced stratification, etc.

  • Benthic boundary layer processes.

  • Wave resuspension at shallow waters.

  • Disturbance of bottom sediment and its redistribution by dredging activity.

  • Quantitative description of the impact of biological and geomorphological processes affecting fine sediment transport.
