The relation between longshore variations in grain size distribution and sediment transport processes

, 2019
This study investigates the relationship between grain-size distributions and sediment transport processes at Ängelholm Beach in southwest Sweden. In total, 308 longshore and cross-shore distributed sediment samples are analysed with respect to median ...

The Effects of Anthropic Structures on Coastline Morphology: A Case Study from the Málaga Coast (Spain)

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
The Málaga coast, in the south of Spain, is a densely populated tourist destination where ports, marinas and coastal protection structures of various typologies (e.g., groins, breakwaters, revetments) and shapes (e.g., “Y”, “L”, etc., shaped groins) have

Decadal evolution of a sandy beach adjacent to a river mouth under natural drivers and human impacts

Frontiers in Marine Science
As escalating environmental pressures threaten the world’s beaches, understanding the driving factors influencing their geomorphological changes is of critical global importance. This study focuses on the morphological changes of Sigeng beach adjacent to
