Variables Used

Coefficient Eckman - Coefficient Eckman represents the change of ebb tidal energy flux across the ocean bar between natural and channel conditions.
Water Surface Slope - The Water Surface Slope describes how it inclines or changes with distance. It's pivotal in understanding water flow in channels like rivers or pipes, influencing the speed and behavior of the water.
Density of Water - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Density of Water is its mass per unit volume. It’s a measurement of how tightly matter is packed together.
Eckman Constant Depth - (Measured in Meter) - Eckman Constant Depth is the depth in water where the effect of wind-induced movement lessens, influencing currents and turbulence within this specific layer of the ocean.
Shear Stress at the Water Surface - (Measured in Pascal) - Shear Stress at the Water Surface referred to as the “tractive force” is a measure of the internal resistance of a fluid to deformation when subjected to a force acting parallel to its surface.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Water Surface Slope: 3.7E-05 --> No Conversion Required
Density of Water: 1000 Kilogram per Cubic Meter --> 1000 Kilogram per Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Eckman Constant Depth: 11 Meter --> 11 Meter No Conversion Required
Shear Stress at the Water Surface: 0.6 Newton per Square Meter --> 0.6 Pascal (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Δ = (β*ρ*[g]*h)/τ --> (3.7E-05*1000*[g]*11)/0.6

Evaluating ... ...

What is Ocean Dynamics?

The Ocean Dynamics define and describe the motion of water within the oceans. Ocean temperature and motion fields can be separated into three distinct layers: mixed (surface) layer, upper ocean (above the thermocline), and deep ocean. Ocean dynamics has traditionally been investigated by sampling from instruments in situ.

What is Dredging?

Dredging is the act of removing silt and other material from the bottom of bodies of water. It is a routine necessity in waterways around the world because sedimentation—the natural process of sand and silt washing downstream—gradually fills channels and harbors.
