| Description: | Technical note PURPOSE: This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) describes the response of six inlet navigation channel projects to deepening and widening. In all cases, deepening and/or widening of these channels increased the dredging rate. The postdredging rate has a good correlation with the deficit of sediment in the channel (defined as the difference between the natural and dredged channel volumes), as compared to the natural (nondredged) channel. |
