Scale Relations for Equilibrium Beach Profiles

Coastal Engineering 1978, 1978
There are many practical problems related to coastal engineering, which may be solved by using movable bed scale models of the coastal zone. The scale model must obey the laws of sediment transport in order to obtain satisfactory results. However, sediment transport in the coastal zones is so complex that the mechanism is not fully understood.

Relationship between high-frequency sediment-level oscillations in the swash zone and inner surf zone wave characteristics under calm wave conditions

Open Geosciences, 2016
Swash zone topography rapidly responds to the surf zone waves. Understanding how sandy beaches respond to wave action is critical for beach erosion research, and plays a critical role in the design and maintenance of shore protection structures. The main

Decadal evolution of a sandy beach adjacent to a river mouth under natural drivers and human impacts

Frontiers in Marine Science
As escalating environmental pressures threaten the world’s beaches, understanding the driving factors influencing their geomorphological changes is of critical global importance. This study focuses on the morphological changes of Sigeng beach adjacent to

The Influence of Beachrock Outcrop on Spatial Variability in Beach Morphology

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Beachrock is a type of coastal carbonate sedimentary rock developed in the sandy beach intertidal zone, widely distributed along the beach front, and the loss of beach sediment is the main cause of beachrock exposure.

Nonlinear long-wave deformation and runup in a basin of varying depth [PDF]

Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2009
Nonlinear transformation and runup of long waves of finite amplitude in a basin of variable depth is analyzed in the framework of 1-D nonlinear shallow-water theory. The basin depth is slowly varied far offshore and joins a plane beach near the shore.

Valuing a Beach Day with a Repeated Nested Logit Model of Participation, Site Choice, and Stochastic Time Value [PDF]

Beach recreation values are often needed by policy-makers and resource managers to efficiently manage coastal resources, especially in popular coastal areas like Southern California.

Influence of groundwater on the beach profile change [PDF]

, 2014
Relationships of hydrological parameters which are groundwater level, rainfall, and tides to the beach profile change of a beach are examined in order to advance understanding on swash zone morphology.

Overtopping a truncated planar beach [PDF]

, 2011
Run-up on a truncated impermeable beach is analysed theoretically and experimentally to find the volume of fluid, associated with a single wave event, that flows over the end of the beach.
