The Disappearing Mississippi Delta—Motivation Provided by Wonsuck Kim et al, EOS Aug 2009
Due to – Upstream Damming (limiting sediment supply)
Artificial Channelization of the river (limiting flooding)
Increased subsidence (?) creating off shore space that needs to be filled
New Orleans
Each year Louisiana loses ~44 sq k of costal wetlands
Loss of a buffer that could protect inland infrastructure

A plan is on the table to reverse this trend is to create breaks in the levees to allow for flooding, sediment deposit, and land growth
Costly and Risky: Is there enough sediment?
Will it be sustainable ?
How long will it take ?
![Page 5: Mathematical Models of Sediment Transport Systems Vaughan R. Voller Tetsuji Muto, Wonsuck Kim, Chris Paola, Gary Parker, John Swenson, Jorge Lorenzo Trueba,](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062410/56649d565503460f94a345c6/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
A lucky accidental natural experiment
Some 100 k or so to the West of New-Orleans ,in the 1970’s a navigation channel was created on a tributary of the Mississippi. This resulted in a massive sediment diversion and over the next 30 years the building of an delta ~20Kin dimension

Can the experience of Wax Lake be transported to the Bird’s Foot? Sediment Delta Growth Models developed can be validated with Wax Lake data?
Building Delta Models is achieved by appealing to heat and masstransfer analogies

A simple minded model: Down stream conditions influence upstream transport
Imagine that particles transport through system as chainsThe lengths of the chains vary and can take values up to the length of the system
So at a given cross section x we can write down a the flux as a weighted average of the down-stream slopes

Such considerations could be important in micro-scale heat transfer-wherethe required resolution is close the scale of the mechanisms in the heat conductionProcess.
