Beach Profile Evolution towards Equilibrium from Varying Initial Morphologies
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019 The evolution of different initial beach profiles towards the same final beach configuration is investigated based on large-scale experimental data. The same wave condition was performed three times, each time starting from a different initial profile ...

WAVE PERIOD AND THE SWASH ZONE ENERGY BALANCE
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1968 The shape sorting of pebbles in the swash zone was studied in an effort to determine the effect of the amount of foreshore infiltration per wave on the swash zone energy balance. Measurements were made of pebbles collected from the swash limit and from the step of selected sandy beaches.

Geomorphological control on boulder transport and coastal erosion before, during and after an extreme extra-tropical cyclone [PDF]
, 2016 Extreme wave events in coastal zones are principal drivers of geomorphic change. Evidence of boulder entrainment and erosional impact during storms is increasing.

Motion of water and sediment due to non-breaking waves in the swash zone
Oceanologia, 2012 A long wave run-up theory is applied to the modelling of wave-induced flow velocities, sediment transport rates and bottom changes in a swash zone. First, the properties of the water tongue motion and the resulting lithodynamic response are analysed ...

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

LANDSAT application of remote sensing to shoreline-form analysis [PDF]
The author has identified the following significant results. LANDSAT imagery of the southern end of Assateague Island, Virginia, was enlarged to 1:80,000 and compared with high altitude (1:130,000) and low altitude (1:24,000) aerial photography in an ...
