Abstract:Moorings and axial surveys using acoustic Doppler current profilers in microtidal Masan Bay were conducted to reveal impacts of coastal seiches on sediment behaviors. The hydrodynamic circulation in the bay was dominated by sluggish tidal and residual currents, with which the coastal seiches with a 1-h period were detected. The coastal seiches velocity (useiche) accounted for approximately 30% of the total velocities, causing back-and-forth water motions along the channel. This was insufficient to resuspend be… Show more
