Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Sediments on Arctic continental shelves are impacted by sea ice and ice‐related processes for up to 9 months per year. As a result, seabed morphology in cold regions can exhibit features such as ice scours which are absent on lower‐latitude shelves.

The role of discharge variability in determining alluvial stratigraphy [PDF]
, 2015 We illustrate the potential for using physics-based modeling to link alluvial stratigraphy to large river morphology and dynamics. Model simulations, validated using ground penetrating radar data from the Río Paraná, Argentina, demonstrate a strong ...

Competition Between Accommodation Space and River Sediment Supply in New Zealand Estuaries
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract This study examines how three New Zealand estuaries with similar geomorphic features but contrasting climates respond to past and projected changes in sea‐level and riverine sediment supply, using an aggregated‐scale estuarine model. Model calibration against historical sedimentation rates demonstrated good agreement, providing confidence in ...

On the modelling of biological effects on morphology in estuaries and seas [PDF]
, 2003 Morphological modelling aims to explain and predict the changes in rivers, seas and estuaries due to these interaction. In recent history, a lot of progress has been made, especially with stability analysis approaches.

New design parameters for biparabolic beach profiles (SW Cadiz, Spain) [PDF]
, 2019 165 profiles of seventy-one beaches along the Gulf of Cadiz (SW, Spain) were studied to improve the formulation of the beach profile in tidal seas. Maritime climate, degree of energy exposure and size of the sand grains were taken into account to study ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract Infragravity (IG) waves play a crucial role in nearshore hydrodynamics and sediment transport; however, their generation and dissipation mechanisms during extreme storms remain challenging to assess due to limited data availability, site‐specific characteristics of natural landscapes, and anthropogenic effects.

Modulation of outer bank erosion by slump blocks: disentangling the protective and destructive role of failed material on the three-dimensional flow structure [PDF]
, 2015 The three-dimensional flow field near the banks of alluvial channels is the primary factor controlling rates of bank erosion. Although submerged slump blocks and associated large-scale bank roughness elements have both previously been proposed to divert ...

How Managed Realignment Modifies Salt Intrusion in Short Estuaries
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract The global loss of intertidal habitats undermines ecosystem services. To restore ecological value and enhance flood protection, managed realignment sites (MRSs) are increasingly implemented along estuaries worldwide. At the same time, estuarine salt intrusion intensifies due to climate change and anthropogenic impacts.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.Abstract The position of the coastal waterline—the interface between land and sea—varies over time due to sedimentary and hydrodynamic processes influenced by climate variability. While previous studies have mainly focused on local morphodynamic or storm‐driven shoreline changes, the large‐scale climatic controls on global waterline variability remain ...

Meandering evolution and width variation, a physics-statistical based modeling approach [PDF]
, 2018 Many models have been proposed to simulate and understand the long-term evolution of meandering rivers. These models analyze the hydraulics of the in-channel flow and the river bank movement (erosion \u2013 accretion) process in different ways, but some ...
