A Mass Conservation Model to Study the Evolution of Coastal Soft Cliffs Driven by Sea Level Rise Over Multi‐Century Timescales

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Soft cliffed coasts are particularly vulnerable to erosion and their retreat depends on environmental, geological and geomechanical factors. In this work, we use a mathematical modeling approach to understand effects of future global sea level rise on these coasts over multiple centuries.

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.

Meshless Model for Wave-Induced Oscillatory Seabed Response around a Submerged Breakwater Due to Regular and Irregular Wave Loading

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
The evaluation of wave-induced seabed stability around a submerged breakwater is particularly important for coastal engineers involved in design of the foundation of breakwaters.

Effectiveness of Ecosystem‐Based Coastal Defenses Against Flooding

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Coastal flooding is growing substantially as storms increase and sea levels rise rapidly due to climate change. It is therefore important to find safe and sustainable ways to protect coastal communities against this growing risk. However, the effectiveness of traditional coastal defenses (hard seawalls) (HS) is being questioned due to concerns

Seagrasses are most vulnerable to marine heatwaves in tropical zones: local‐scale and broad climatic zone variation in thermal tolerances

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 2835-2851, March 2026.
Summary Under a changing climate, it is imperative that we understand how species may respond to temperature impacts, which can differ among populations of the same species due to local drivers. Thermal tolerance data, which can be used to assess an organism's upper thermal limits, is valuable to identify species and/or populations' susceptibility to ...

Tide‐Modulated Ocean‐to‐Earth Energy Conversion Quantified With Coastal Fiber Sensing

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Quantifying how incident ocean waves transfer energy into seismic surface waves along the nearshore is essential for understanding coastal hazards and Earth–ocean coupling, yet time‐resolved in situ estimates have been scarce. Here we use a beach‐deployed distributed acoustic sensing array co‐located with an ocean‐bottom node to directly ...

Numerical simulation of wave attenuation and shoreline response in a coastal region with submerged breakwater

Frontiers in Marine Science
The non-hydrostatic numerical model NHWAVE was employed to investigate the hydrodynamic behavior of a coastal region with submerged breakwater, focusing on the structural dimensions and incident wave conditions. In the numerical experiment, regular waves

Behaviour of Temperate Reef Fish Species Around Oyster Aquaculture Farms and Natural Rock Reefs

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Cultivation of eastern oysters using aquaculture gear increases habitat for temperate reef fish. Cunner (Tautogolabrus adspersus), scup (Stenotomus chrysops) and tautog (Tautoga onitis) inhabit a variety of complex natural and manmade habitats, including oyster aquaculture cage farms.

Experimental study of a new type of floating breakwater [PDF]

, 2015
A new type of floating breakwater (FB) is proposed in this paper. Its hydrodynamic performance has been tested. The structure of the new breakwater named cylindrical floating breakwater (CFB) consists of two parts: a main body of rigid cylinders, and a ...
