Investigation of bar parameters occurred by cross-shore sediment transport

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2013
Cross-shore sediment transport is very important factor in the design of coastal structures, and the beach profile is mainly affected by a number of parameters, such as wave height and period, beach slope, and the material properties of the bed.

The Influence of Wave Nonlinearity on Cross-Shore Sediment Transport in Coastal Zone: Experimental Investigations

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
On the basis of field experiment data, the main features of influence of non-linear wave transformation scenarios on cross-shore sediment transport in coastal zones were investigated.

Wave driven cross shore and alongshore transport reveal more extreme projections of shoreline change in island environments [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
Coastal erosion, intensified by sea level rise, poses significant threats to coastal communities in Hawaiʻi and similar island communities. This study projects long-term shoreline change on the Hawaiian Island of O‘ahu using the data-assimilated CoSMoS ...

Laboratory Investigation of Cross-Shore Sandbar Beginning and Ending Depths [PDF]

open access: yesAerul şi Apa: Componente ale Mediului, 2020
In the coastal regions, cross shore sediment transport causes significant changes in coastal morphology. In the design of structures such as sea walls, spurs and breakwaters, it is of great importance to accurately determine the movement of sediment in ...

A Coupled Hydrodynamic-Equilibrium Type Beach Profile Evolution Model

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
An equilibrium beach profile model is developed and coupled with a parametric hydrodynamic model to provide feedback between the evolving morphology and the hydrodynamics.

Morphodynamics of wave-dominated beaches

open access: yesCambridge Prisms: Coastal Futures, 2023
Wave-dominated sandy beaches are highly valued by societies and are amongst the world’s most energetic and dynamic environments. On wave-dominated beaches with unlimited sand supply and limited influence of tide and geology, beach change has long been ...

Mesoscale Shoreline Evolution on a Carbonate Sand Island: Anegada, British Virgin Islands

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Anegada, the easternmost island of the Virgin Islands group (Caribbean Sea), is a low Pleistocene carbonate platform surrounded by Horseshoe Reef, the world’s third-largest fringing reef. The western part of the island consists of an extensive beachridge

Observations of Cross-Shore Chenier Dynamics in Demak, Indonesia

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Cheniers are important for stabilising mud-dominated coastlines. A chenier is a body of wave-reworked, coarse-grained sediment consisting of sand and shells overlying a muddy substrate. In this paper we present and analyse a week of field observations of
