“…Over the past 10 years, the CMS has been applied to a number of U.S. and international study locations for the evaluation of inlet and coastal structure performance and rehabilitation and the design of sand management strategies such as ebb/flood shoal mining, channel reorientation, beach nourishment, and location of dredge material placement sites (Li et al 2009;Beck and Kraus 2010;Demirbilek et al 2010;Reed and Lin 2011;Lambert et al 2013;Lin et al 2013;Wang et al 2013;Lu et al 2014). An indepth verification and validation study of the CMS was also conducted independently and as an integrated system for hydrodynamics, waves, and sediment transport and morphology change for laboratory experiments and coastal applications (Demirbilek and Rosati 2011).…”

“…Researchers at CHL are evaluating the onedimensional cross-shore numerical model CSHORE (Johnson et al 2012) for predictions of nearshore morphology. The Coastal Modeling System (CMS) has been used to evaluate a variety of nearshore placements from a two-dimensional perspective (Brutsché et al 2017;Lambert et al 2013;Li et al 2011Li et al , 2018aLi et al ,b, 2019Lin et al 2013;McFall et al 2018). The Adaptive Hydraulics model (two-dimensional or three-dimensional depending on configuration) has been applied in coastal settings and used to investigate dune overtopping.…”

The Coastal Inlets Research Program and the Regional Sediment Management Program co-sponsored the 2019 Nearshore Placement Workshop. Thirty-four participants from the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) and numerous districts met in Vicksburg on January 29-30, 2019, as a part of the workshop. This workshop was convened to facilitate discussions on concerns districts face regarding nearshore placements from resource agencies and stakeholders, challenges to placing sediment in the nearshore, and future research needs. The workshop included ERDC presentations on the state of the science regarding nearshore placements; specific implementations of nearshore placements within various US Army Corps of Engineers districts; break-out-style discussions on nearshore placement challenges and potential paths forward; and group discussions on metrics for success, quantification of benefits, Statements of Need (SON), and research priorities. A few of the major recurring themes throughout the workshop were the importance of monitoring, concerns over the fate of fine-grained sediment, and difficulties conveying the benefits of nearshore placements to a wide range of audiences. The workshop culminated in a discussion of possible SON to be put forth to the ERDC research and development community. This special report describes the discussions and outcomes of the 2019 Nearshore Placement Workshop.

“…The authors state that the limited range of sediment sources in PTM make the model perform poorly when attempting to simulate bedload transport in regions of evolving morphology, such as dredged material mounds, and this limitation should be considered when applying the model. Lin et al (2013) used the CMS, Short Term Fate (STFATE), and PTM models to evaluate potential nearshore placement sites in Noyo Harbor, California. The STFATE model (Johnson 1990) simulates the aerial distribution of dredged material in open water after it is passed through the water column on an individual release of the hopper or barge load.…”

This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering special report is a general overview of the current state of nearshore berm placement research. The report describes current design guidance for nearshore berm placement, as well as the major findings of existing numerical and physical modeling studies. Field experiments are also summarized. Numerical and physical models are important as they help to illustrate in greater detail the morphological evolution and hydrodynamic effects the berm has on the surrounding area. Physical models allow for two-and three-dimensional illustration of these concepts. Field studies show that onshore migration of active berms occurs and the tendency of nearshore berms to act as a submerged breakwater. Although many field and modeling studies exist to assess the morphologic and sedimentologic evolution of berms, a need for more detailed understanding of the processes associated with these types of nourishments still exists. More data to predict where material is going, how the existing adjacent morphologic features respond to the placement, and how long the material will remain in place (or its intended location) are necessary to answer stakeholder questions for these types of placements.
