Formation of offshore tidal sandbanks triggered by a gasmined bed subsidence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Offshore gasmining is an example of a human intervention with a morphological impact. On land, it is usually attended with a dish-like bed depression.

A Methodological Approach to Determine Sound Response Modalities to Coastal Erosion Processes in Mediterranean Andalusia (Spain) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Human occupation along coastal areas has been greatly increasing in recent decades and, in many places, human activities and infrastructures are threatened by erosion processes that can produce relevant economic and human losses.

The sensitivity of landscape evolution models to spatial and temporal rainfall resolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
© Author(s) 2016. Climate is one of the main drivers for landscape evolution models (LEMs), yet its representation is often basic with values averaged over long time periods and frequently lumped to the same value for the whole basin. Clearly, this hides

Understanding the Impact of Bathymetric Changes in the German Bight on Coastal Hydrodynamics: One Step Toward Realistic Morphodynamic Modeling

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The hydrodynamic response to morphodynamic variability in the coastal areas of the German Bight was analyzed via numerical experiments using time-referenced bathymetric data for the period 1982–2012.

Impact of Anthropogenic Facilities on the Morphodynamic Evolution of an Estuarine System: The Case of Oum Er-Rbia Estuary (Azemmour, Morocco)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
The Oum Er-Rbia estuary is located on the Atlantic littoral of Morocco. It undergoes severe clogging due to the sand deposition in its outlet. The current study examined the indicators of the morphodynamic evolution in the littoral system including the ...

Morphodynamic Evolution of Post-Nourishment Beach Scarps in Low-Energy and Micro-Tidal Environment

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
Beach scarps are commonly associated with nourishment. Large and persistent beach scarps not only affect the performance of beach nourishment, but also are safety hazards to tourists.

Remote sensing of intertidal morphological change in Morecambe Bay, U.K., between 1991 and 2007 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Tidal Flats are important examples of extensive areas of natural environment that remain relatively unaffected by man. Monitoring of tidal flats is required for a variety of purposes. Remote sensing has become an established technique for the measurement

Modeling bed evolution using weakly coupled phase-resolving wave model and wave-averaged sediment transport model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper, we propose a model for the simulation of the bed evolution dynamics in coastal regions characterized by articulated morphologies.

Dynamique spatiotemporelle d'un tronçon fluvial à méandres contraints latéralement : le cas de la Bénoué inférieure (Nord-Cameroun)

open access: yesPhysio-Géo, 2022
The geomorphological functioning of the meandering section of the Benue in Cameroon is poorly known. This article aims to fill this knowledge gap by characterising the morphological changes of this system.

Morphodynamic regime and long‐term evolution of meandering rivers [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2009
In the present contribution we focus our attention on the long‐term behavior of meandering rivers, a very common pattern in nature. This class of dynamical systems is driven by the coexistence of various intrinsically nonlinear mechanisms which determine the possible occurrence of two different morphodynamic regimes: the subresonant and the ...
