    Abstract
    The purpose of this data file, which has been modelled after Hathaway (1971), is to make available most of the basic data that was collected as part of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution's study of New Bedford Harbor. The New Bedford Harbor project, which was jointly funded by the Office of Sea Grant and Woods Hole, was designed to examine the past and present patterns of dispersal and accumulation of fine-grained sediments and waste materials in New Bedford Harbor and its approaches.

      Decadal-timescale estuarine geomorphic change under future scenarios of climate and sediment supply 

      Ganju, Neil K.; Schoellhamer, David H. (Springer, 2009-12-19)
      Future estuarine geomorphic change, in response to climate change, sea-level rise, and watershed sediment supply, may govern ecological function, navigation, and water quality. We estimated geomorphic changes in Suisun ...

      Effects of estuarine and fluvial processes on sediment transport over deltaic tidal flats 

      Ralston, David K.; Geyer, W. Rockwell; Traykovski, Peter A.; Nidzieko, Nicholas J. (2012-01-25)
      Tidal flats at a river mouth feature estuarine and fluvial processes that distinguish them from tidal flats without river discharge. We combine field observations and a numerical model to investigate hydrodynamics and ...

      On the nature of estuarine circulation : part I (chapters 3 and 4) 

      Stommel, Henry M.; Former, Harlow G. (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1952-10)
      The reader will quickly see that the subject matter of Chapter 3 is confined to the hydraulics of sharply stratified media, whereas real estuaries are always more or less diffusely stratified. What is more, no discussion ...
