^The first two digits indicate year of experiment; the letter follow- 

 ing the year indicates the planned separate reports (X, Y, A, B, C, 

 and D) . The last two digits indicate the tank used for the experi- 

 ment (6- or 10-foot tank). 



^Determined for given wave period and constant water depth of 2.33 

 feet, so that generated wave energy flux computed from linear 

 theory had a constant value of 5.8 foot-pounds per second per foot. 



^The cumulative time at the end of each run for the two surveying 

 sequences is defined in Table 2. 



NOTE. --The same sediment was used in all 10 experiments; however, the 

 initial average dso (by dry sieve analysis) of quartz sand was 0.23 

 millimeter in 1971 and 0.22 millimeter in 1972.
