Wave–current dynamics and interactions near the two inlets of a shallow lagoon–inlet–coastal ocean system under hurricane conditions

Ocean Modelling, 2018
Inlet wave–current dynamics and interactions are vital to the physical exchanges in a lagoon–inlet–coastal ocean system. A wave–current coupled model was calibrated and validated against observational data, and then applied to investigate the complex ...

300 Years of Degradation in Wales Estuaries and Coasts

Natural Resources Forum, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The world's oceans are in a severe state of degradation, yet our understanding of that degradation is often based on changes observed only in the past 20–50 years. This narrow view leads to marine conservation efforts that aim to preserve already degraded ecosystems, shaped by shifted ecological baselines.
