Present and future flooding and erosion along the NW Spanish Mediterranean Coast

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Coastal flooding and eros-ion caused by extreme events are the main factors responsible for beach hazards. This effect will be exacerbated by the sea level rise induced by climate change.

OCEAN DRIVEN FLOODING OF A COASTAL LAKE [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 2014
Analysis of Lake Conjola flooding in April 2006, provided in this paper, attributes it to waves pumping water over a 300 m long beach berm and into Lake Conjola. This overwash, generated by the medium wave height swell occurring during this flooding, was able to lift the lake levels near the entrance, persistently over several tidal cycles, to well ...
