| Abstract |
The paper analyses present day residual morpho-dynamics and sediment dynamics on the Kwintebank, partly on ground of volumetric monitoring and partly of visual bank profile comparison, departing from geomorphological techniques, requiring sequential detailed bathymetric profiling, high precision navigation and positioning, and profile normalization, uniformization and equalization. It aims at a quantified approach of shape and location change and of sediment migration problems. It presents numerical data about volumetric evolution trends on the bank and advances a dynamical subdivision of the bank and the existence of different sand transportation mechanisms. |
