Spatial and temporal scales of the morphodynamic evolution within the Studland complex. [PDF]

open access: yes
This research has analysed the large sandy beach at Studland Peninsula over a range of spatial and temporal scales, recording a range of geomorphic features and the processes by which they evolve.

Field Observation and Quasi-3D Numerical Modeling of Coastal Hydrodynamic Response to Submerged Structures

open access: yes한국해양공학회지, 2023
Even though submerged breakwater reduces incident wave energy, it redistributes the coastal area's wave-induced current, sediment transport, and morphological change.

Surf Zone Turbulence and Suspended Sediment Dynamics—A Review

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
The existence of sandy beaches relies on the onshore transport of sand by waves during post-storm conditions. Most operational sediment transport models employ wave-averaged terms, and/or the instantaneous cross-shore velocity signal, but the models ...

Modelling of wave climate and sediment transport patterns at a tideless embayed beach, Pirita Beach, Estonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Nearshore sand transport patterns along the tideless, embayed Pirita beach, Tallinn, Estonia, have been investigated utilizing high-resolution modelling of wave processes combined with bathymetric surveys and sediment textural analyses of the nearshore ...

The use of artificial neural networks to analyze and predict alongshore sediment transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
An artificial neural network (ANN) was developed to predict the depth-integrated alongshore suspended sediment transport rate using 4 input variables (water depth, wave height and period, and alongshore velocity).

Littoral Sediment From Rivers: Patterns, Rates and Processes of River Mouth Morphodynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Rivers provide important sediment inputs to many littoral cells, thereby replenishing sand and gravel of beaches around the world. However, there is limited information about the patterns and processes of littoral-grade sediment transfer from rivers into

Influence of Beach Slope on Morphological Changes and Sediment Transport under Irregular Waves

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
This paper presents new data from large-scale wave flume experiments. It shows the beach profile evolution and sediment transport for two different bed slopes (1:15 and 1:25), and three irregular high-energy erosive wave conditions and one low-energy ...

Cross-Shore Suspended Sediment Transport in Relation to Topographic Changes in the Intertidal Zone of a Macro-Tidal Beach (Mariakerke, Belgium)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
Sediment transport is a key element in intertidal beach morphodynamics, but measurements of sediment transport are often unreliable. The aim of this study is to quantify and investigate cross-shore sediment transport and the resulting topographic changes

Dynamics of suspended sediment transport and yield in a large agricultural catchment, southwest France [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The dynamics of suspended sediment transport were monitored continuously in a large agricultural catchment in southwest France from January 2007 to March 2009.

Hydrodynamics and morphodynamics in the swash zone: hydralab III large-scale experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The modelling of swash zone hydrodynamics and sediment transport and the resulting morphodynamics has been an area of very active research over the last decade. However, many details are still to be understood, whose knowledge will be greatly advanced by
