Beach development, sediment budget and coastal erosion at Holderness. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Complex relationships exist among offshore conditions, beach sediment transport and morphology, and till cliff erosion. Modelled and measured sediment transport rates established for the Holderness coast are similar to those on comparable coasts ...

Spatial and temporal scales of the morphodynamic evolution within the Studland complex. [PDF]

open access: yes
This research has analysed the large sandy beach at Studland Peninsula over a range of spatial and temporal scales, recording a range of geomorphic features and the processes by which they evolve.

Measuring Beach Profiles along a Low-Wave Energy Microtidal Coast, West-Central Florida, USA

open access: yesGeosciences, 2016
Monitoring storm-induced dramatic beach morphology changes and long-term beach evolution provides crucial data for coastal management. Beach-profile measurement using total station has been conducted along the coast of west-central Florida over the last ...

Gravel beaches nourishment: Modelling the equilibrium beach profile [PDF]

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2018
The erosion of the world's coasts and the shortage of sand to mitigate beach erosion are leading to the increasingly common use of gravel for coastal protection and beach nourishment. Therefore, in order to determine the amount of gravel required for such actions, it is important to know perfectly the equilibrium profile of gravel beaches.

Beach Profile Evolution towards Equilibrium from Varying Initial Morphologies

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
The evolution of different initial beach profiles towards the same final beach configuration is investigated based on large-scale experimental data. The same wave condition was performed three times, each time starting from a different initial profile ...

Modelling of wave climate and sediment transport patterns at a tideless embayed beach, Pirita Beach, Estonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Nearshore sand transport patterns along the tideless, embayed Pirita beach, Tallinn, Estonia, have been investigated utilizing high-resolution modelling of wave processes combined with bathymetric surveys and sediment textural analyses of the nearshore ...

Space-time variations in macrobenthic fauna of a sandy beach, related to changes in the beach profile and sediment grain size, at El Pelicano Beach, Baja California

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 1997
Time-space variations in macrobenthonic biocenosis are described in relation to the morphology of the beach profile and textural characteristics of the sediment at El Pelícano Beach, South of San Felipe, Baja California, Mexico. Sampling was carried out

Influence of Beach Erosion during Wave Action in Designed Artificial Sandy Beach Using XBeach Model: Profiles and Shoreline

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Beach width is an important factor for tourists’ comfort, and the backshore is a swash zone where sediment moves quickly. Artificial sandy beaches focus on beach width stability and evolution.
