Heather studies the interaction between sediment and obstacles placed on the sea bed with a combination of numerical and laboratory experiments. For her M.S. thesis, Heather Smith studied Modelling the Flow and Scour Around a Immovable Cylinder. Homepage --> Homepage -->



Assistant Professor Diane Foster

Dr. Foster and her students examine small-scale transport of sediment in response to waves and mean flows. Homepage


Current Students



Claire Nichols, B.S.

Claire studies the effect of small-scale flow structures over rippled sea beds with Particle Image Velocimetry data obtained during the CROSSTEX experiment. For her undergraduate work, Claire Nichols studied the Evaluation of Wave-Current Bottom Boundary Layer Models in her thesis. Homepage



Donya Frank

Donya studies the interaction of individual sediment grains with wave and mean flows. Donya is a recent graduate of Harvey Mudd College. Being from Jamaica, she has an especially good appreciation for coastal engineering.

Former Students



Kim Hatton, B.S.

Kim studied the scour of vertical piles in riverine and coastal environment with a two-axis rotating sonar and a numerical model, FLOW-3D. For her undergraduate work, Kim Hatton studied The Scour and Burial of Submerged Mines in her thesis. Homepage



Heather Smith, M.S.

Heather studied the interaction between sediment and obstacles placed on the sea bed with a combination of numerical and laboratory experiments. For her M.S. thesis, Heather Smith studied Modelling the Flow and Scour Around a Immovable Cylinder. Homepage



Jenna Brown

Jenna studied the changes in bedform geometry for different wave forcing regimes with experimental data obtained at CROSSTEX



Doug Dusini, M.S.

Doug is a coastal engineer now working with Coastal Science & Engineering.



Parag Natoo, M.S.

Parag Natoo studied the Evaluation of Near Bed Suspension in a Wave and Current Dominated Environment in his thesis.



Allison Penko, B.S.

Currently, Allison is a graduate student at the University of Florida.



Xiuying Xing, M.S.

Xiuying Xing studied Wave Bottom Boundary Layer Physics and Bed Load Sediment Transport in Nearshore in her thesis.
