Competition Between Accommodation Space and River Sediment Supply in New Zealand Estuaries
Abstract This study examines how three New Zealand estuaries with similar geomorphic features but contrasting climates respond to past and projected changes in sea‐level and riverine sediment supply, using an aggregated‐scale estuarine model. Model calibration against historical sedimentation rates demonstrated good agreement, providing confidence in ...

How Managed Realignment Modifies Salt Intrusion in Short Estuaries
Abstract The global loss of intertidal habitats undermines ecosystem services. To restore ecological value and enhance flood protection, managed realignment sites (MRSs) are increasingly implemented along estuaries worldwide. At the same time, estuarine salt intrusion intensifies due to climate change and anthropogenic impacts.

Salt-marsh plants play important roles in the hydrodynamics and sediment transport and deposition processes in coastal regions. The Delft3D model was applied to quantify the influence of salt-marsh plants on the hydrodynamic characteristics and suspended

We developed and made accessible to end‐users a numerical 2D hydrodynamic modelling approach with several advantages: reliable applicability to flexible woody vegetation from emergent to submerged conditions, and improved estimates of effective bed shear stress for sediment transport. Novelties compared to existing numerical models include a physically

Indonesia, located in the zone of “Ring of Fire,” has a high tsunami risk, specifically from those induced by earthquakes. The 2004 Aceh Tsunami and the 2006 Pangandaran Tsunami demonstrated that tsunamis could cause major damage to coastal areas.

Harbor‐Induced Tidal Salinity Dispersion in Partially Stratified Estuaries
Abstract The contribution of tidal trapping to salt dispersion has been well described for well‐mixed estuaries, in terms of barotropic filling and emptying of the traps. How traps contribute to salt dispersion in deeper, partially stratified systems remains underexplored.

Analysis of Thermal Plume Dispersion into the Sea by Remote Sensing and Numerical Modeling
The aim of this work was to study, by remote sensing and numerical modeling, the thermal dispersion of a plume discharged into the sea by a nuclear power plant.

Sedimentation and Longshore Current Simulation with Delft3D Software in Rejoso Shoreline
Abstract Rejoso estuary, located 3 kilometers from the center of Pasuruan, has an unstable river mouth that threatens the existence of residents in the surrounding area. During the rainy season, when high discharge in the river meets high tide from the ocean, flooding occured in residential areas located around the coast.

Abstract River bifurcations control water and sediment distribution in fluvial systems, but the physical mechanisms governing sediment partitioning remain poorly validated in natural rivers. We present a comprehensive field test of nodal point relations using radio frequency identification (RFID) tracking of 376 gravel clasts through a meandering river
