| Abstract: | PURPOSE: The Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) described herein describes mechanisms by which sediment bypasses both natural and improved tidal inlets. The note pertains principally to inlets on alluvial or sandy shores and is a product of activities of the Coastal Inlets Research Program (CIRP), which is conducting both applied and basic studies at coastal inlets (for further information on the CIRP , see http ://cirp.wes.army.mil/cirp/cirp.h tml). |
