Sand transverse dune aerodynamics: 3D Coherent Flow Structures from a computational study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The engineering interest about dune fields is dictated by the their interaction with a number of human infrastructures in arid environments. Sand dunes dynamics is dictated by wind and its ability to induce sand erosion, transport and deposition.

Equality, diversity, inclusion: ensuring a resilient future for geomorphology

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2020
Within and beyond academia, debates around equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) have been gathering pace. We focus on EDI and geomorphology and address four main questions: (1) why does EDI matter for geomorphology?; (2) what are the barriers to ...

A continuous 500‐year sediment record of inundation by local and distant tsunamis in South‐Central Chile (40.1°S)

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Tsunami events over the past 500 years inundated Laguna Gemela West (Chile), leading to distinct sandy deposits in the lake record. This provides a complete perspective on tsunami inundation, including giant tsunamis, small local tsunamis and tsunamis that originated >100 km away from the site.

Controls on carbonate island formation and evolution: South Joulter Cay, Great Bahama Bank

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
The evolution of South Joulter Cay occurs in three stages: linear ridges shaped by waves and longshore currents, arcuate ridges influenced by tidal currents and channels, and cuspate ridges formed by variable wind and wave directions. These processes are driven by climatic and oceanographic factors.
