Description
Summary:According to wave data recorded by a two pressure sensors array during the months of April, August and October of 1985 at the spit of the estero de Punta Banda, B.C., the net longshore sediment transport was calculated. Results show a study area that has been exposed to the swells from the South in April and August, and to swells from the north with local waves in October. The transport values obtained are 384 and 10.56 m3 d–1 towards the estero mouth in April and August respectively, and a value of 110.4 m3 d–1to Punta Banda in October. Con datos de oleaje registrado mediante un arreglo de dos sensores de presión durante abril, agosto y octubre de 1985 en la barra del estero de la Punta Banda, B.C., se. calcula el transporte neto de sedimento paralelo a la playa. Los resultados revelan una zona de estudio expuesta a marejadas del sur durante abril y agosto, y a marejadas del norte junto con olas locales en octubre. Los valores obtenidos de transporte son de 384 y 10.56 m3 d–1 en dirección a la boca del estero durante abril y agosto respectivamente, y de 110.4 m3 d–1 hacia Punta Banda en octubre.
