Trend analysis of the wave storminess: the wave direction [PDF]

Advances in Geosciences, 2010
In this paper changes in the wave pattern of the Catalan coast are analyzed in terms of wave storminess and wave direction based on series of 44 years of hindcast wave data. The analysis is performed employing two different techniques: one resulting from

Winter Storm Induced Turbulent Structure Alteration Triggers Sediment Export From an Abandoned Subaqueous Delta

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Winter storms present a major erosional hazard to subaqueous deltas globally, but the associated dynamic mechanisms are still not well understood. Using high‐resolution in situ data collected over a 3‐week period in the abandoned Yellow River subaqueous delta, this study employs three‐dimensional quadrant analysis to examine turbulent ...

Flash Drought Assessment: Insights from a Selection of Mediterranean Islands, Greece

Hydrology
Flash droughts are a significant natural hazard, characterized by rapid onset and potential to cause substantial economic and environmental impacts. This study utilizes ERA5 soil moisture data to identify and define historical flash drought (FD) events ...

Detecting Changes in European Shoreline Evolution Trends Using Markov Chains and the Eurosion Database

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
European coastal databases contain information on the evolution of European shorelines in the 1990s and the 1980s. We investigate if a shift toward erosion has been observed between these two periods, as it could be expected as a consequence of ...

A Self-Adaptive Method for Mapping Coastal Bathymetry On-The-Fly from Wave Field Video

Remote Sensing, 2021
Mapping coastal bathymetry from remote sensing becomes increasingly more attractive for the coastal community. It is facilitated by a rising availability of drone and satellite data, advances in data science, and an open-source mindset.

Ecogeomorphologic Response of a Tidally Restricted Salt Marsh to Tidal Restoration and Sea‐Level Rise

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Diked marshes with decades of restricted tidal flow exhibit fundamentally altered hydrologic and ecologic dynamics that result in limited vertical accretion, land subsidence, and underdeveloped tidal channels. These changes complicate marsh restoration efforts and constrain the marsh's ability to build elevation in response to future sea ...

Weather Patterns Associated With Coastal Disasters in Santa Catarina, Southern Brazil

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 8, 30 June 2026.
The study identified weather patterns (WPs) associated with coastal disasters between 1998 and 2020 along the Santa Catarina coast, Brazil. Using atmospheric and oceanographic data combined with official disaster records, five WPs were defined, mainly associated with cyclonic and anticyclonic systems linked to extreme wave events.

Revealing Coastal Storm‐Wave Transformations From SWOT HR Observation: The English Channel Case Study

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.
Abstract Swell propagation and transformation across variable bathymetry and coastal obstacles fundamentally control nearshore wave energy redistribution, sediment transport, and shoreline evolution. Conventional satellite altimetry cannot adequately resolve these dynamics, particularly refraction and diffraction as swell transition into shallow waters.
