River delta shoreline reworking and erosion in the Mediterranean and Black Seas: the potential roles of fluvial sediment starvation and other factors

Elementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2017
The Mediterranean basin (including the Black Sea) is characterized by a plethora of deltas that have developed in a wave-influenced setting. Many of these deltas are sourced in sediments by river catchments that have been variably dammed.

Cryptic Superfine Placer Gold Populations, Round Hill Mine, Southern New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 3, September 2026.
Superfine (50–<1 µm) detrital gold and platinum group mineral (PGM) particles at the Round Hill mine near Foveaux Strait were locally derived (<20 km) from as‐yet undefined basement sources. This superfine component contrasts with the dominant coarser (typically >100 µm) gold and PGM particles at the mine that have been transported for >100 km in ...

Variations in the Wave Climate and Sediment Transport Due to Climate Change along the Coast of Vietnam

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2016
This study quantifies the climate change (CC)-driven variations in wave characteristics and the resulting variations in potential longshore sediment transport rate along the ~2000 km mainland coast of Vietnam.

Morphodynamics of wave-dominated beaches

Cambridge Prisms: Coastal Futures, 2023
Wave-dominated sandy beaches are highly valued by societies and are amongst the world’s most energetic and dynamic environments. On wave-dominated beaches with unlimited sand supply and limited influence of tide and geology, beach change has long been ...

Suspended Sediment and Longshore Sediment Transport Data Review

Coastal Engineering 1972, 1972
A review of laboratory and field studies on suspended sediment under waves shows that although about five analytical or semi-empirical approaches have been attempted to predict the vertical distribution of suspended sediment, none of the approaches has had its general validity proven.

Reconnaissance Investigation of Sedimentation Patterns in a Small Modern Anthropogenically Influenced Inlet, Otūwhero Estuary, Abel Tasman National Park, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.
The structurally controlled Otūwhero estuary on the SE boundary of Abel Tasman National Park is a small partially filled incised valley. The small size, limited number of fluvial inputs, accessibility and surrounding land use made it an ideal candidate on which to investigate potential climate‐induced estuarine behaviour. Surficial sediment samples and

River Sand and Gravel Mining: Global Drivers, Impacts, and Pathways for Sustainable Management

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract River sand and gravel are mined worldwide at volumes that now rival their natural replenishment, yet quantitative knowledge of this mining activity and its consequences lags far behind many other global environmental pressures. We synthesize 411 peer‐reviewed studies published since 1974 within a new Driver‐to‐Management Pathway for ...

Wave refraction and longshore transport patterns along the southern Santa Catarina coast

Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 2007
Based on the wave climate for the southern Brazilian coast, wave refraction has been modelled in order to obtain the refracted wave heights and directions along the southern Santa Catarina coast, providing the needed information for potential longshore ...
