Although increasing sediment supply from river to coast is planned by sand-bypassing through the upstream dams in near future, a better understanding on morphology change around river mouth is needed to facilitate optimal management of the river mouth. Especially, understanding on sediment transport around the river mouth opening is essential to prevent river mouth closure which leads to many problems. The purpose of this study is to reveal the mechanism of sediment transport around river mouth opening. ER -
