An integrated framework combining fractal geometry, sedimentology and coastal exposure analysis revealed higher coastal vulnerability in Procida than in Mykonos despite the latter's greater shoreline complexity. This approach provides a robust tool for assessing morphodynamics and supporting sustainable management of Mediterranean island coasts ...

Spatial and temporal controls on beach cusp development on an intermediate beach
The spatial distribution patterns of beach cusps were highly related to mesoscale beach volume changes. 74.3% of beach cusps were situated on accretion‐dominated segments, associated with the megacusp horn development or embayment infill. Some erosional cases, in relation to beach nourishment and storm events, additionally support that sediment ...

Wave diffraction modifies attenuation in semi‐infinite submerged vegetation
Abstract Coastal vegetation is increasingly recognized for enhancing coastal resilience against climate change. Studies show that alternating vegetated and unvegetated patches can effectively dissipate wave energy, while emphasizing the need to better characterize wave diffraction in such configurations.

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

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 ...

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 ...

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