highly valuable for the study of sediment transport. It is conceivable that a 

 significant advance toward relating wave forcing and transport rates has been 

 made. These data promise to improve the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' 

 capability in sediment transport predictions.

The authors are thankful to Dr. Kraus of the Coastal Engineering Research 

 Center (CERC) for the opportunity to participate in this experiment, and for 

 patiently encouraging the work during experimental difficulties. The LDV 

 was developed over several years under the Office of Naval Research support, 

 and we thank Drs. Joseph Kravitz and Tom Kinder. The authors also 

 acknowledge the excellent support of the CERC staff present at 

 SUPERTANK, and the cooperation of the Oregon State University staff, 

 especially Mr. Terry Dibble. Finally, we gratefully acknowledge the data 

 provided by Mr. Mather of SeaTech Inc. of Corvallis, Oregon, from the 

 newly developed OFS.
