Aquatic macrophytes as nature‐based solutions: Challenges and opportunities across inland and coastal waters

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 11, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Macrophytes are foundation species whose use as nature‐based solution (NbS) in aquatic ecosystems can help reduce climate change impacts while mitigating biodiversity loss. The discrepancy in research and application of macrophytes as NbS across inland and marine coastal ecosystems is an opportunity to expand the concept and learn from ...

Long-term prediction of longshore sediment transport in the context of climate change

open access: yes, 2020
Due to climate change impacts on atmospheric circulation, global and regional wave climate in many coastal regions around the world might change. Any changes in wave parameters could result in significant changes in wave energy flux, the patterns of ...

The Rate of Longshore Sediment Transport and Beach Erosion Control

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1982, 1982
The main purpose of this paper is to propose an ideal methodology for beach erosion control from the viewpoint of controlling the total rate of longshore sediment transport. For this, a new formulation of the rate of longshore sediment transport is made.

Longshore Sediment Transport on the Brazilian Continental Shelf

open access: yesScientia Plena, 2019
Beaches are suffering morphological changes due the interaction between energetics components and local sedimentary supply imbalance. The understanding of the wave climate is an essential source of information for the composition of coastal planning projects.

Nearshore waves and longshore sediment transport along Rameshwaram Island off the east coast of India

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2015
Wave-induced Longshore Sediment Transport (LST) play an important role in the dynamics of the Dhanushkodi sandspit located southeast of Rameshwaram. The LST along the Dhanushkodi coast is studied based on data collected simultaneously in Gulf of Mannar ...

Predicting the sediment rate of Nakhilo Port using artificial intelligence

open access: yesInternational Journal of Coastal and Offshore Engineering, 2020
In order to predict changes in coastal profile, it is necessary to investigate the sediment transport rate along the coast. Sediment transport is important in the areas of sedimentology, geomorphology, civil engineering and environmental engineering. The

Potential littoral sediment transport along the coast of South Eastern Coast of India

open access: yesEarth Sciences Research Journal, 2010
<p align="left">In the nearshore zone of present study area, the movement of sand alongshore is due to the action of waves and currents. The sediment movement along the shoreline of study area is mainly governed by the forces associated with the ...
