Analysis of Sediment Transport in the Nueces and Corpus Christi Bays

Project Description

This project analyzed and modeled the sediment transport and provided a base model that can be used to evaluate sediment distribution and determine areas and rates of sediment loss due to erosion in response to natural events and development scenarios. A secondary goal is to support the development of an overarching regional sediment management plan for the CCNB by defining sediment-data gaps, developing a data collection strategic plan, and share the data and the plan with regional stakeholders to promote a region-wide coordinated data-collection effort.
