Coastal cliff ground motions and response to extreme storm waves [PDF]

, 2015
Coastal cliff erosion from storm waves is observed worldwide, but the processes are notoriously difficult to measure during extreme storm wave conditions when most erosion normally occurs, limiting our understanding of cliff processes.

Can Biostimulants and Phytohormones Improve Early Growth, Biomass Allocation, and Photosynthesis in Miscanthus Plug Plants?

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
Application of biostimulants and phytohormones enhanced Miscanthus plug growth by increasing height, biomass, and photosynthetic efficiency. Treatments such as Liquid Ice and IAA improved early vigor and resource allocation, offering a scalable strategy to strengthen establishment and accelerate the deployment of Miscanthus for sustainable bioenergy ...

Probability Analysis of Overtopping During Construction Period of Dam Based on Improved Interval Non-Probabilistic Reliability

Applied Sciences
Probabilistic analysis of overtopping is an important aspect of dam construction, and the uncertainty in the construction progress complicates the calculation of overtopping probabilities.

Expected Discharge of Irregular Wave Overtopping

Coastal Engineering 1968, 1968
An experiment was carried out on the overtopping of mechanically generated irregular waves over vertical walls. The experimental discharge was almost in agreement with the expected discharge which had been calculated with the wave height histogram and the data of regular wave overtopping based on the principle of linear summation.

Flood Risk Management Using Representative Hillslopes: Insights From a Historical Flood in Southwest Germany

Hydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
A coupled hydrologic and hydraulic modelling framework relying on representative hillslope models and scaled using hydraulic routing schemes is proposed to simulate Hortonian overland flow at intermediate scales. Using a reconstructed historic summer storm in southwest Germany (1994), we show how hillslope scale nature‐based flood prevention measures ...

Spatiotemporal numerical modeling of wave overtopping flow over dike crests and landward slopes

Applied Ocean Research
Wave overtopping can cause severe erosion on the crest and landward slope of a dike. Accurate erosion prediction requires resolving the spatiotemporal evolution of overtopping flow, which remains insufficiently understood.

Deep Uncertainty Surrounding Coastal Flood Risk Projections: A Case Study for New Orleans

, 2017
Future sea-level rise drives severe risks for many coastal communities. Strategies to manage these risks hinge on a sound characterization of the uncertainties. For example, recent studies suggest that large fractions of the Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) may

Experimental study on multi-level overtopping wave energy convertor under regular wave conditions

International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering, 2018
A multi-level overtopping wave energy converter was designed according to the large tidal range and small wave heights in China. It consists of two reservoirs with sloping walls at different levels.

Water and erosion damage to coastal structures: South Carolina Coast, Hurricane Hugo, 1989 [PDF]

, 1990
Hurricane Hugo hit U.S. Mainland on September 21, 1989 just north of Charleston, South Carolina. It was billed as the most costly hurricane on record.
