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.

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

Morphodynamic Evolution of a Fringing Sandy Shoal: From Tidal Levees to Sea Level Rise

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2020
Intertidal shoals are vital components of estuaries. Tides, waves, and sediment supply shape the profile of estuarine shoals. Ensuring their sustainability requires an understanding of how such systems will react to sea level rise (SLR).

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

Modeling meander morphodynamics over self-formed heterogeneous floodplains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This work addresses the signatures embedded in the planform geometry of meandering rivers consequent to the formation of floodplain heterogeneities as the river bends migrate.

A novel approach for the assessment of morphological evolution based on observed water levels in tide-dominated estuaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Assessing the impacts of both natural (e.g., tidal forcing from the ocean) and human-induced changes (e.g., dredging for navigation, land reclamation) on estuarine morphology is particularly important for the protection and management of the estuarine ...

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 ...

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.

Dynamic allometry in coastal overwash morphology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Allometry refers to a physical principle in which geometric (and/or metabolic) characteristics of an object or organism are correlated to its size. Allometric scaling relationships typically manifest as power laws.
