碩士 / 國立臺灣大學 / 地理環境資源學研究所 / 91 / Estuaries form important parts of the coastal system and may be subdivided into three regimes; wave dominated, tidal dominated and river dominated. Each dominant hydrological regime has significant influence on sediment transport. This study investigates coastal evolution of a river dominated estuary at various spatial and temporal scales.
The Morphology of the Tamsui Estuary is highly influenced by natural environment and human activities. This study aims to understand the short-term morphological fluctuation of the Tamsui Estuary. A detailed surveying by using total station was used to measure surface relief for constructing digital terrain models (DTMs) of Watsuwei research site before and after Typhoon Sinlaku which took place in 2002. Typhoon Sinlaku has caused erosion and deposition in the study area, but the north-eastern monsoon also plays an important role in shaping beach configuration.
