coarse sediment in a sentence

Examples

1. This means that coarser sediment particles can be transported and the deposited sediment can be coarser than in deeper environments.
2. They can be found all over the world and are most noticeable on shorelines with coarser sediment such as pebble beaches.
3. Another factor that is preventing the supply of coarse sediment to the lagoon barrier is the damming of the Waitaki River.
4. Fine sediment falls back into the rootwad pit or travels downstream, but coarse sediments form a local rock veneer around the rootwad.
5. As shown in Figure 4, prior to breakwater construction fine and coarse sediments were transported from the south and deposited on Washdyke Barrier.
6. However, after the breakwater was built the coarse sediment is unable to reach the barrier as it accumulates at the port's southern side.
7. Reflective beaches are typically steep in profile with a narrow shoaling and surf zone, composed of coarse sediment, and characterised by surging breakers.
8. Therefore, once the cusp is established, coarser sediment is constantly being deposited on the horn and finer sediment is being eroded away from the embayments.
9. The crashing of the wave into the cusps slows its velocity, causing coarser sediment to fall out of suspension and be deposited on the horns.
10. This may be a factor in their recent serious declines; silver perch may rely on their eggs settling onto clean, well oxygenated substrates of coarse sediments.
