An RGB‐D Approach Assisted by Foundation Models for Reconstructing Bedforms With Artificial Vegetation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Detecting sand beds in laboratory sediment experiments is challenging, especially when artificial vegetation or other structures are present. RGB‐D cameras offer fast, high‐resolution, and low‐cost sand bed reconstruction. However, the commonly applied Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM)‐based approaches for RGB‐D data often fail on ...

A non-hydrostatic model for wave evolution on a submerged trapezoidal breakwater

Results in Applied Mathematics, 2023
A depth-averaged non-hydrostatic model is formulated to investigate wave evolution on a water channel with a submerged trapezoidal breakwater. This model is an extension of nonlinear shallow water equations that includes hydrodynamic pressure and ...

Chemically Welded, Capillary‐Printed Ion‐Selective Membranes for Durable Solid‐State Chloride Sensors in Dynamic Marine Environments

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 9, September 2026.
Chemically welded capillary printing creates durable chloride‐selective membranes that resist drift and delamination. The integrated solid‐state sensor reliably tracks tidal salinity variations, enabling scalable, low‐cost marine monitoring across distributed networks. ABSTRACT Salinity is a critical environmental parameter governing ocean circulation,

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

Journal 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 ...

Mega Mounders: Burrowing Talitrids (Megalorchestia spp.) Excavate Large Quantities of Sand on California Beaches

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract High densities of burrowing talitrid amphipods inhabit beaches around the world. This includes California, where densities of more than 1,000 individuals m−2 are regularly recorded. Here, we provide evidence of Megalorchestia spp. excavating up to 10.38 kg dry sand m−2 d−1 on a beach in southern California, one of the highest mounding rates ...

Wave dissipation effect of a new combined breakwater and its protective performance for coastal box girder bridges

Advances in Bridge Engineering
Breakwaters play an important role in in mitigating wave-induced damage to marine structures. However, conventional submerged breakwaters often exhibit limited wave dissipation capabilities, while floating breakwaters may lack adequate safety performance.

Numerical study of wave transmission over double submerged breakwaters using non-hydrostatic wave model

Oceanologia, 2015
In the present work, a non-hydrostatic wave model SWASH (an acronym of Simulating WAves till SHore) is used to simulate the wave transmission over double trapezoidal submerged breakwaters.

On Formulae for Wave Transmission at Submerged and Low-Crested Breakwaters

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Submerged and low-crested breakwaters are nearshore barriers with an underwater or slightly emergent crest, designed to reduce the energy of wave attacks and, consequently, to protect the coast from erosion and flooding. Their performance in reducing the
