Assessing the Port Footprint on Coastal Flood and Erosion Risks
Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract Ports are often perceived as sources of disruption to coastal environments, contributing to sediment imbalance, shoreline erosion and ecosystem service loss. However, this framing overlooks the broader, system‐scale influence that ports can exert on coastal dynamism and flood risk.

Time scales of river bifurcations
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 50, Issue 12, 30 September 2025.By means of numerical and analytical analyses, this work unveils how upstream flow conditions and branch length affect how fast bifurcations evolve over time. Modelling results also show that bifurcations evolve more slowly than bar migration and natural flow variations.

Numerical study of hydrodynamic mechanism of dynamic tidal power
Water Science and Engineering, 2018 Dynamic tidal power is a new way of capturing tidal energy by building a water head using a dike perpendicular to the coast. This study explored the hydrodynamic mechanism of the water head across an intended dynamic tidal power dike system using the ...

The influence of transverse slope effects on large scale morphology in morphodynamic models
E3S Web of Conferences, 2018 Large-scale morphology is greatly affected by the amount of downslope sediment transport on slopes transverse to the main flow direction, which determines bar length and bifurcation dynamics. Consequently, the transverse slope parameter is a crucial part

Improving planning and response to inland water oil spills through mathematical modeling [PDF]
RBRHThis study evaluates oil spill emergency response strategies in inland waters through three-dimensional hydrodynamic modeling, using a 2015 accident at a large hydroelectric plant in the middle reach of the Iguaçu River (Brazil) as a reference case.

Sedimentation and Longshore Current Simulation with Delft3D Software in Rejoso Shoreline
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021 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.
