| abstracts | The paper deals with the influence of the wave shape, represented by water surface elevationsand wave-induced nearbed velocities, on sediment transport under joint wave-current impact.The focus is on the theoretical description of vertically asymmetric wave motion and the effectsof wave asymmetry on net sediment transport rates during interaction of coastal steady cur-rents, namely wave-driven currents, with wave-induced unsteady free stream velocities. Thecross-shore sediment transport is shown to depend on wave asymmetry not only quantitatively(in terms of rate), but also qualitatively (in terms of direction). Within longshore lithodynamics,wave asymmetry appears to have a significant effect on the net sediment transport rate. |
