Tidal fluctuations played an important role in the mechanism of cross-shore trans- port (Swain and Houston 1984a). The sensitivity of the model to other important parameters is discussed elsewhere (Swain 1984). 83. A comparison has been made also between measured profile modifica- tion during the Currituck Sand-Bypass Study (Schwartz and Musialowski 1980) and the profile response model calculations. This study involved placement of 26,750 cu m of sediment on the coast near New River Inlet, North Carolina, using the split-hull dredge CURRITUCK. Since the dump area was relatively small, there were significant "end effects" so that the amount of sand in the 65.
