High Resolution Field Observations of Shoreward Sediment Transport Within the Wave Bottom Boundary Layer on a Sandy Beach

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract We introduce a data archive containing the first highly resolved profiles of velocity and sediment concentration within the wave bottom boundary layer (WBBL) on a natural sandy beach. Resolution of the thin WBBL was made possible by deployment of a unique “Multi‐Frequency Doppler” (MFDop) bistatic acoustic profiling instrument on an Oregon ...

Infragravity Waves Across a Steep‐Sloping Rough Rocky Seabed on the Inner Shelf

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Observations of infragravity (IG) waves were conducted from June to October 2023 along the rocky shores off China Rock, CA, on the inner shelf at depths of 8–13 m. The study examines inner‐shelf IG wave dynamics over rough, steep rocky shores and compares them with those over smoother, gentler sandy shores and coral reefs. IG energy correlated

Characterizing the Distribution of Nepheloid Layers and Their Response to Hydrodynamics in the NE Rockall Trough, NE Atlantic Ocean

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Suspended and slow‐sinking particles, especially those concentrated within nepheloid layers, can act as pivotal mediators of oceanic carbon transport and benthic‐pelagic coupling. However, identifying nepheloid layers and distinguishing their composition (i.e., inorganic particles, phytoplankton, zooplankton, and fish) using only acoustic ...

Impacts of Cross‐Shore Winds, Waves, and Sand Ridges on Inner Shelf Circulation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Processes dominant on depth‐averaged subtidal flows at the surf zone and the inner shelf with sand ridges. The yellow layer indicates the sandy seafloor bathymetry; the oscillating dashed lines at the inner shelf indicates the sand ridges. Abstract Understanding of circulation on inner continental shelves needs to be advanced to accurately predict the ...

Hydrodynamic and Sediment Response to Oyster Castles Under Wave Forcing: Insights From Laboratory Flume Experiments

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Nature‐based shoreline protection strategies, such as engineered oyster reefs and living shorelines, offer sustainable alternatives to hard infrastructure. In this controlled laboratory study, we evaluate relative hydrodynamic and sediment‐response differences among interlocking oyster‐castle configurations under monochromatic wave forcing ...
