Hydrodynamic forcing with respect to sediment transport and morphologic change, paying particular attention to relevant swash asymmetries, is reviewed. The hydrodynamics are categorized into their individual effects: high- and low-frequency motions, bores and turbulence, in/exfiltration, shear stresses and friction coefficients.

Turbulence experiments in the swash zone
Coastal Engineering, 2001Abstract Turbulence and water surface elevation measurements were carried out in the swash zone which was induced by plunging and collapsing breakers in a wave flume. Three different period regular waves were generated on a 1/10 smooth impermeable concrete beach and the water surface elevations were collected by a number of wave gauges and a run-up ...

Hydrokinematic regions within the swash zone
Continental Shelf Research, 2007Abstract A method for delimiting the swash zone and regions within is presented. Two regions are recognized and distinguished by their differing flow kinematics. The outer swash region involves wave-swash interactions and related processes, whereas the inner swash region consists of pure swash motion (i.e., free from interaction with subsequent waves)

This chapter describes the morphological features and key processes related to the swash zone, situated at the landward edge of the inundated part of the beach system. It is where incoming surf zone waves force oscillatory motion of the shoreline at a variety of frequencies.

Velocity Profiles at the Swash Zone
Coastal Structures 2003, 2004Velocity profiles at the swash zone have been sampled with an ADVP during a large scale experiment on a fixed bed beach. The unique set of data permits to observe the time variation of the velocity distributions and to contribute to the debate concerning the variation of the friction factor, f , in a swash cycle. The analyses of the velocity data with

SWASH ZONE AND NEAR-SHORE WATERTABLE DYNAMICS
Coastal Engineering 2002, 2003Attempts are made to infer an infiltration rate distribution in the swash zone from measured head level profiles using a modified Boussinesq equation model. Limitations of this particular application of the model are illustrated as inconsistencies near the boundaries of the infiltration zone.

Probabilistic-Deterministic Modelling of Swash Zone Morphology
Coastal Sediments '07, 2007A probabilistic‐deterministic model for swash zone sediment transport is presented and applied to predict cross‐shore beach profile change under random waves. For accretionary conditions, inclusion of a random wave approach is essential for accurate representation of berm building processes. The model provides good estimates of beach volume changes for

The fate of marine microplastics in the swash zone
Marine Pollution BulletinThis study provides the first directly comparable estimates of seawater contamination with microplastics (MPs, 0.3-5 mm) and mesoplastics (MePs, 5-25 mm) during the five sampling expeditions in November and December 2024 in the south-eastern part of the Baltic Sea.

A broad illustration is given of integral swash zone models as a flexible and upgradable approach for formulating shoreline boundary conditions for wave-averaged circulation models. Integral models represent a framework in which various types of flow parameterizations can be fitted to give ever-improving descriptions of swash zone motions. Examples are

Surf and Swash Zone Hydrodynamics
1997Abstract : The long-term goal is to improve understanding of the hydrodynamics of the near-shore motions on beaches, with particular reference to the zone where the incident waves break, form surf, and run-up on the beach to give a fluctuating shoreline.
