Open Geosciences, 2016 Swash zone topography rapidly responds to the surf zone waves. Understanding how sandy beaches respond to wave action is critical for beach erosion research, and plays a critical role in the design and maintenance of shore protection structures. The main

MORPHODYNAMIC INSTABILITIES IN THE SURF ZONE [PDF]
Coastal Engineering 2004, 2005 The bed forms in the surf zone can grow as a result of natural morphodynamic instabilities, forced by the wave-induced flow. This work gives a contribution to the dynamics of the formation and evolution the bed forms in surf zone. We use the new morphodynamic model, M-SHORECIRC, to analyze the growth and dynamics of bar-type, rhythmic, bed forms of a ...

Large scale experiments on beach evolution induced by bichromatic wave groups with varying group period [PDF]
, 2014 New large scale experimental data have been presented showing the wave group influence on beach morphodynamics at the surf and swash zones. Bichromatic wave conditions were generated varying the modulation bandwidth but keeping the wave energetic content

Factors influencing fish and macrocrustacean communities in the surf zone of sandy beaches in Belgium: temporal variation [PDF]
, 2001 Monthly samples were taken in the surf zone of sandy beaches along the Belgian coast from May 1996 until July 1997 at four selected stations. Temporal patterns of the macrocrustacean and fish species residing the surf zone were investigated, as well as ...

eDNA captures depth partitioning in a kelp forest ecosystem.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is an increasingly important tool for surveying biodiversity in marine ecosystems. However, the scale of temporal and spatial variability in eDNA signatures, and how this variation may impact eDNA-based marine ...

An equilibrium profile model for tidal environments
Scientia Marina, 2002 During a full tidal cycle, the beach profile is exposed to continuously changing hydrodynamical conditions. Consequently, the profile evolves constantly to adapt to these changes.

Emerging crescentic patterns in modelled double sandbar systems under normally incident waves [PDF]
Earth Surface Dynamics, 2020 Double sandbar systems often characterize the surf zone of wave-dominated beaches and display a variety of poorly explained spatial configurations.

Modeling the Impact of the Implementation of a Submerged Structure on Surf Zone Sandbar Dynamics
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019 Coastal defense strategies based on structures are increasingly unpopular as they are costly, leave lasting scars on the landscape, and sometimes have limited effectiveness or even adverse impacts.
