Sand Wave Study.

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA330613 | Open PDF

Abstract:

This report will provide further information on the origins of depositional bed forms and their attendant flow regimes. It will focus on sand wave formation, size, and dynamics because the occurrence of these features can have far reaching implications on site selection efforts and the integrity of buried objects such as cables and pipelines.
