Observations of nearshore and surf zone wind stress [PDF]
, 2014 Field data of the wind stress over surf zone waves is presented from an open ocean beach on the East Australian Coast. Two ultrasonic anemometers were deployed at nominal heights of 5 and 10 m above the water surface in the intertidal and inner surf ...

Measuring and modeling suspended sediment concentration profiles in the surf zone
Journal of Palaeogeography, 2012 Time-averaged suspended sediment concentration profiles across the surf zone were measured in a large-scale three-dimensional movable bed laboratory facility (LSTF: Large-scale Sediment Transport Facility).

A numerical model for the simulation of a solitary wave in a coastal region [PDF]
, 2015 In this paper we propose a numerical model for the simulation of the tsunami wave propagation on coastal region. The model can simulate the wave transformation due to refraction, shoaling, diffraction and breaking phenomena that take place in the surf ...

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 This paper investigates the dynamics of the cross-shore extensions of banquettes, a sedimentary structure mostly made by rests of Posidonia oceanica (L.) Delile, in a sandy urban beach located in the Gulf of Cagliari, Italy, western Mediterranean.

Surf Zone Mapping Using Multirotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Imagery
International Journal of Optics, 2019 Surf zone is a sand area that stretches inside a breaking wave to limit the rise and fall of waves on the beach. Advanced technology in the geomatics field offers a fast and accurate solution to produce surf zone maps.

Surf zone hyperbenthos of Belgian sandy beaches: seasonal patterns [PDF]
, 2001 Since surf zone hyperbenthos, although highly important in local food webs, has often been neglected and very little information is available, a survey of the Belgian sandy beaches was carried out from May 1996 until July 1997. Monthly samples were taken

Non‐hydrostatic, Non‐linear Processes in the Surf Zone
, 2020 In the surf zone, non-hydrostatic processes are either neglected or estimated using linear wave theory. The recent development of technologies capable of directly measuring the free surface elevation, such as 2-D lidar scanners, allow for a thorough ...

Numerical Study on Tsunami Hazard Mitigation Using a Submerged Breakwater
The Scientific World Journal, 2014 Most coastal structures have been built in surf zones to protect coastal areas. In general, the transformation of waves in the surf zone is quite complicated and numerous hazards to coastal communities may be associated with such phenomena.

Effects of Coastal Groundwater Level on Beach Deformation [PDF]
한국해양공학회지, 2019 In order to understand the characteristics of beach deformation, in this study, numerical simulations were conducted using a 3-D hydro-morphodynamic model (HYMO-WASS-3D) to analyze the characteristics of beach deformation due to the coastal groundwater ...

ANZIAM Journal, 2017 A new method is described for making field measurements of broken surf fronts (turbulent bores) on coastal beaches. The position of a Garmin watch attached to a bodyboarder riding the surf front is recorded every second. The results of a large number of experiments on various beaches indicate that the surf fronts are uniformly retarded.
