1 National Center or Earth-surace Dynamics: Summary o Lectures on Transport o Non-Cohesive Sediment What is Morphodynamics? Sediment Properties Modes o Transport o Sediment Equations or Conservation o Bed Sediment Overview o Fluid Dynamics Threshold o Motion Skin Friction and Form Drag Relations or Bed Load Transport Relations or Entrainment o Bed Sediment into Suspension Formulation or Suspended Sediment Sediment Transport in Wave Boundary Layers Formulation or Wave-Current Boundary Layers
2 National Center or Earth-surace Dynamics: WHAT IS MORPHODYNAMICS? THE ORIGINS OF MORPHODYNAMICS:DUNE ASYMMETRY Felix Maria Exner, an Austrian physicist, asked the ollowing question circa 90. Why do river dunes have gentle stoss (upstream) aces and steep lee (downstream) aces? Looking upstream: Lab (SAFL)
3 National Center or Earth-surace Dynamics: MORE DUNES: NOTE THE ASYMMETRY Looking upstream: Lab (H. Ikeda) Looking downstream: Field (Amazon basin)

6 National Center or Earth-surace Dynamics: EXNER REDUCED THE PROBLEM TO A PROBLEM OF NONLINEAR WAVE DYNAMICS He ound. Dunes like Froude-subcritical low.. Dunes migrate downstream as mass waves. 3. Dunes are nonlinear waves: migration speed changes with elev, c c(η) 4. In particular, wave speed increases with elevation 5. Voilà, the asymmetry evolves on its own!

Wash load is transported through without exchange with the bed. In rivers, material iner than mm (silt and clay) is oten approximated as wash load. Bed material load is urther subdivided into bedload and suspended load. Bedload: sliding, rolling or saltating just above bed role o turbulence is indirect Suspended load: eels direct dispersive eect o eddies may be wated high into the water column
