Morphological Processes in Shallow Tidal Seas

The formation and the elementary behaviour (e.g. propagation, growth and decay, dispersion) of linear sand banks in shallow tidal seas are analyzed. The principal tool is a linearized mathematical model of three-dimensional topographical changes of a sandy bottom in a tidal environment.
