Morphodynamics of a mesotidal, exposed, low tide terrace beach (Faro, southern Portugal)

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2004
A field assessment of microtopographic changes and disturbance depth was carried out during a tidal cycle at Faro beach, southern Portugal. This mesotidal beach presents a well developed low tide terrace, wide and flat (tan ß = 0.02), and an important ...

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Controls on Flow Separation at the River Bifurcation Head

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Flow separation zones are common hydrodynamic features in river bifurcations, strongly influencing flow partitioning and channel morphology. While the inner‐bank separation zones have been widely recognized, we identify a previously underreported separation zone at the bifurcation head.

Modeling Length Adjustment in Alluvial Anabranching Units

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Anabranching units form when the stream flow divides into two channels that reconnect downstream. Recent observations indicate that these patterns tend to develop fairly regular planforms, characterized by an average length that scales with reach‐averaged channel geometry and by weak asymmetry between the anabranches.

Évolution du littoral de la baie de Saïdia : dynamique naturelle et impact des aménagements (Maroc oriental)

open access: yesPhysio-Géo, 2009
The analysis of aerial photographs (of several missions) coupled with the study of heavy minerals made it possible to show the shoreline changes, to reconstitute the dynamics of the various sedimentary environments of the Saïdia littoral and to underline

Fracto-Morphodynamics

open access: yes, 2022
In this work the connection between curvature, the emergence of the universe, and the process of morphogenesis is investigated in detail. We have come a long way from general relativity using differential geometry, which describes the curvature of space-time as an emergent phenomena, to the more recent theory of loop quantum gravity using non-geometric

Partial Entrance Restriction as a Potential Tidal Flood Mitigation Strategy in a Large Urban Estuary

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Tidal flooding in estuaries is expected to worsen as sea‐level rise (SLR) continues to accelerate and increases storm surge height. Conventional structural defences are often unsustainable, while nature‐based solutions like managed realignment require extensive land to be repurposed.

Exploring Marine and Aeolian Controls on Coastal Foredune Growth Using a Coupled Numerical Model

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
Coastal landscape change represents aggregated sediment transport gradients from spatially and temporally variable marine and aeolian forces. Numerous tools exist that independently simulate subaqueous and subaerial coastal profile change in response to ...

Morphodynamical enaction: the case of color [PDF]

open access: yesBiological Research, 2003
With Francisco Varela’s death, one of themost beautiful minds I ever met has gone toheaven. The inspired way he succeeded insynthesizing cognitive neurosciences,dynamical models of global brain activityand the phenomenological dimension ofconsciousness was truly amazing andwonderful.
