A Mass Conservation Model to Study the Evolution of Coastal Soft Cliffs Driven by Sea Level Rise Over Multi‐Century Timescales

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Soft cliffed coasts are particularly vulnerable to erosion and their retreat depends on environmental, geological and geomechanical factors. In this work, we use a mathematical modeling approach to understand effects of future global sea level rise on these coasts over multiple centuries.

Process-based indicators to assess storm induced coastal hazards [PDF]

, 2017
Storms are responsible for several hazards (e.g. overwash, erosion, inundation) in coastal areas, leading to the destruction of property and loss of life in populated areas.

Effectiveness of Ecosystem‐Based Coastal Defenses Against Flooding

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Coastal flooding is growing substantially as storms increase and sea levels rise rapidly due to climate change. It is therefore important to find safe and sustainable ways to protect coastal communities against this growing risk. However, the effectiveness of traditional coastal defenses (hard seawalls) (HS) is being questioned due to concerns

Observations and Preliminary Vulnerability Assessment of a Hybrid Dune-Based Living Shoreline

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
A novel hybrid (e.g., vegetation, sand, cobble, rip-rap) nature-based dune structure was constructed at Cardiff State Beach in Encinitas, California, to protect a critical transportation artery from undermining and frequent flooding.

Morphodynamic Model Suitable for River Flow and Wave-Current Interaction [PDF]

, 2017
Morphodynamic models are a great support in water environment management and decision-making, as well as in integrated coastal zone planning. In the present paper, a 2DH model is presented, able to deal with both currents, waves and their mutual ...

Vulnerability of Key Sea Turtle Nesting Beaches to Future Erosion and Sea Level Rise

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Threatened sea turtles rely on sandy beaches for nesting, linking their long‐term survival to global beach availability. However, beaches worldwide are increasingly threatened by anthropogenic stressors and sea level rise (SLR). Reliable vulnerability assessments require understanding beach dynamics across multiple time scales, informed by ...

Unveiling the Stochasticity of Bank Erosion: A Hybrid Deterministic and Stochastic Modeling Approach

Water Resources Research
This paper presents a new hybrid deterministic‐stochastic river morphodynamics numerical modeling approach that integrates a hydrodynamic model (deterministic) with a bed morphodynamic model (deterministic) and a bank erosion model (Markovian stochastic).

Effects of Anthropic Structures on Morphodynamic Beach Evolution along the Gulf of Roses (Northwestern Mediterranean, Spain)

Geosciences
This study conducts a morphodynamic analysis of beaches located in the northern sector of the Gulf of Roses (NW Mediterranean, Spain). The primary objective is to investigate mid-short (2004–2020) term spatial and temporal variations in shoreline ...

Extreme Coastal Waves Due To Australian East Coast Lows in a Warming Climate

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The southeast coastline of Australia is frequently impacted by East Coast Lows (ECLs), hybrid storms with both tropical and extratropical characteristics. Although typically short‐lived and spatially limited, ECLs can rapidly intensify and generate extreme waves that cause severe coastal erosion and associated hazards.

Post‐Collapse Ice Cliff Backwasting at the Marmolada Glacier Observed by Terrestrial Radar Interferometry

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The unexpected collapse of the Marmolada Glacier in the Italian Alps on 3 July 2022, caused 11 fatalities and emphasized the need for a deeper understanding of unstable glaciers. In response, we initiated a radar monitoring campaign to assess the stability of the remaining ice cliff and obtained a near‐continuous data set of displacement at ...
