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 ...

Expert opinion: uncertainties in hydraulic roughness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Water level predictions in rivers are used for a variety of purposes in water management. For example, designing flood defence measures and evaluating natural rehabilitation in flood plains, cannot be done without water level predictions.

A Numerical Study of the Effects of Density Contrast on Flow, Turbulence, and Mixing at the Negro/Solimoes Confluence, Brazil

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Eddy‐resolving numerical simulations are conducted to investigate the effects of density contrast between the confluent flows on hydrodynamics, coherent structures and mixing downstream of the confluence between the Negro and Solimões Rivers, Brazil, which is characterized by both a large discharge (>100,000 m3/s) and a large aspect‐ratio (W/D

Flash Drought Assessment: Insights from a Selection of Mediterranean Islands, Greece

open access: yesHydrology
Flash droughts are a significant natural hazard, characterized by rapid onset and potential to cause substantial economic and environmental impacts. This study utilizes ERA5 soil moisture data to identify and define historical flash drought (FD) events ...

Remote sensing of tidal networks and their relation to vegetation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The study of the morphology of tidal networks and their relation to salt marsh vegetation is currently an active area of research, and a number of theories have been developed which require validation using extensive observations. Conventional methods of

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

An Integrated Modeling Framework for Sediment Dynamics During Urban Flooding: Application to Hurricane Harvey in Houston

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Floodwater can mobilize and redistribute large volumes of sediment from upland to downstream urban areas, threatening infrastructure, water quality, and ecosystem health. However, existing modeling approaches often fail to capture sediment dynamics in urban floodplains due to the lack of integration between upland hydrological processes and ...

The Role of Waves, Shelf Slope, and Sediment Characteristics on the Development of Erosional Chenier Plains

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2018
Cheniers are sandy ridges parallel to the coast separated by muddy deposits. Here we explore the development of erosional chenier plains, which form by winnowing during storms, through dimensional analysis and numerical results from the morphodynamic ...

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.

Flow Processes in a Diffluence‐Confluence Unit on a Large‐Shallow River Under Different Discharges

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Understanding the hydrodynamics of bifurcation and confluence zones is essential for effective river management. This study investigated the complex flow structure in a large diffluence‐confluence unit (width‐depth ratio >100) of the Middle Yangtze River, utilizing systematic field observations of three‐dimensional velocities under low to high
