Analysis of Dynamic Changes in Sedimentation in the Coastal Area of Amir-Abad Port Using High-Resolution Satellite Images
No full textSediment transport and shoreline changes causing shoreline morphodynamic evolution are key indicators of a coastal structure’s operational continuity. To reduce the computational costs associated with sediment transport modelling tools, a novel procedure based on the combination of a support vector machine for image classification and a trained neural network to extrapolate the shore evolution is presented here. The current study focuses on the coastal area over the Amir-Abad port, using high-resolution satellite images. The real conditions of the study domain between 2004 and 2023 are analysed, with the aim of investigating changes in the shore area, shoreline position, and sediment appearance in the harbour basin. The measurements show that sediment accumulation increases by approximately 49,000 m^2/y. A portion of the longshore sediment load is also trapped and deposited in the harbour basin, disrupting the normal operation of the port. Afterwards, satellite images were used to quantitatively analyse shoreline changes. A neural network is trained to predict the remaining time until the reservoir is filled (less than a decade), which is behind the west arm of the rubble-mound breakwaters. Harbour utility services will no longer be offered if actions are not taken to prevent sediment accumulation

No full textA letter from Hayao (Sam) Chuman to the American Friends Service Committee, donating a portion of his redress check from the U.S. government to the Committee.The Chuman (Hayao "Sam" and Toshiko) Papers documents the World War II experiences of Hayao "Sam" and Toshiko Chuman, who were Kibei Nisei born in the United States but grew up and completed school in Japan, and then returned to the U.S. prior to the war. It chronicles the Chuman's incarceration from the Santa Anita Assembly Center, through Jerome, Rohwer, Tule Lake camps, and the Santa Fe and Crystal City internment camps as well as their struggle for restoring their U.S. citizenships in the 1960s. The digital collection consists of mostly textual material, including correspondence, affidavits, incarceration camp records, lease agreements, financial documents, receipts, pamphlets, and booklets
