Total Longshore Flow Rate Actively Pumped through the External Recirculation System = 303.7 ℓ/sec
Column 6 lists the longshore averaged elevation of the mean water level
(MWL) as measured with the wave gauges at the six standard transects. These
values are measured relative to the still-water level. Column 7 is the measured
mean water depth, which was calculated by adding the values listed in Column 4
to those listed in Column 6.
Column 8 is the longshore averaged cross-sectional area of the water column
in front of each flow channel (i.e., the cross-sectional area of the water column in
front of each flow channel in which the longshore current flows downstream).
These values are obtained by multiplying the values in Column 7 by a factor of
0.75 m, which is the width of each flow channel.
Column 9 lists the cross-shore distribution of the depth-averaged longshore
