Exploring Future Ecogeomorphic State Transitions of an Undeveloped Barrier Island: Multidecadal Model Projections for North Core Banks, NC, USA

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Ecogeomorphic state transitions in coastal barrier systems will be impacted and likely amplified by projected accelerated sea‐level rise and enhanced storm intensity over the next several decades. When, where, and how these transitions will take place remain uncertain and complex, yet are of primary interest to coastal managers looking to ...

Numerical investigation of dynamic soil response around a submerged rubble mound breakwater: II. Loose sandy seabed

open access: yes, 2020
Low-crested structures such as submerged rubble mound breakwaters (RMB) are commonly used as successful examples of coastal protection measures. This study addresses foundation issues related to the performance of a submerged RMB constructed on a ...

Impact of River Planform and Groyne Lowering on Groyne‐Field Bathymetry

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Groyne fields, near‐bank pockets between successive groynes in engineered rivers, act as zones of sediment storage. While groyne‐field bathymetry is known to vary considerably in space and time, the controls on this variability and the consequences of groyne modification thereof remain poorly quantified.

Analytical study of oblique wave scattering by a submerged pile–rock breakwater

open access: yes, 2017
This study examines the scattering of obliquely incident waves by a submerged pile–rock breakwater, which consists of two rows of closely spaced piles and a rock core between them.

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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,

Hybrid one-line/ 2DH model of submerged breakwater for coastal protection

open access: yes
Submerged breakwaters, like natural reefs, have the potential to promote the resilience of beaches by creating a buffer against waves and generating circulation patterns that retain sand.

Wave transformation over submerged permeable breakwater on porous bottom

open access: yes, 2014
A numerical model is presented in this study to investigate the wave transformation over a submerged permeable breakwater on a porous slope seabed. For this purpose, the time-dependent mild-slope equation is newly derived for waves propagating over two ...

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 ...

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
