Introduction to SUPERTANK: A Crown Jewel of Coastal Data Collection This book presents the SUPERTANK Laboratory Data Collection Project, a large, multi‑institutional effort to study beach erosion, sediment transport, and cross‑shore hydrodynamics using a wide, state‑of‑the‑art wave channel. It explains how researchers measured waves, currents, and sediment changes under controlled laboratory conditions to support better predictive models.
The volume focuses on narrative chapters written by the investigators who led the work. It describes the evolution of SUPERTANK, the capabilities of the Oregon State University wave research facility, and the role of large facilities in advancing coastal engineering science. Readers will learn how data collection was planned, executed, and analyzed to illuminate beach profile changes and sediment transport processes.
Ideal for readers seeking a historical, technical look at laboratory methods for coastal processes and how large-scale experiments inform modeling and prediction.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a report of a data collection project that took place in 1991 at the OH. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory in Oregon State University. It was a multidisciplinary and multi-institutional cooperative effort in which investigators shared instrumentation and expertise. The project produced data and insights on detailed physical processes for development of the next generation of coastal processes numerical simulation models, to improve understanding of micro-scale fluid and sand motion, and improve existing macro-scale beach profile change numerical simulation models. The book provides information and data documenting a coastal processes data collection project called the SUPERTANK Data Collection Project. SUPERTANK was conducted as a multidisciplinary and multi-institutional cooperative effort in which the investigators shared instrumentation and expertise. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
