An analytical model for bore-driven run-up [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We use a hodograph transformation and a boundary integral method to derive a new analytical solution to the shallow-water equations describing bore-generated run-up on a plane beach.

Morphodynamics of carbonate beaches in the Yucatán Peninsula

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2009
The concept of beach morphodynamics was used to classify the swash zone of carbonate sandy beaches in the central part of the state of Yucatán (Mexico).

Depth-Resolved Modelling of Intra-Swash Morphodynamics Induced by Solitary Waves

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
We present a fully coupled 2DV morphodynamic model, implemented in OpenFOAM® that is capable of simulating swash-zone morphodynamics of sandy beaches.

Direct Measurements of Bed Shear Stress under Swash Flows on Steep Laboratory Slopes at Medium to Prototype Scales

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
Robust measurements of bed shear stress under wave runup flows are necessary to inform beachface sediment transport modelling. In this study, direct measurements of swash zone bed shear stress were obtained in medium and prototype-scale laboratory ...

Lidar Observations of the Swash Zone of a Low-Tide Terraced Tropical Beach under Variable Wave Conditions: The Nha Trang (Vietnam) COASTVAR Experiment

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
A field experiment was conducted at a tropical microtidal intermediate sandy beach with a low tide terrace (Nha Trang, Vietnam) to investigate the short-term swash-zone hydrodynamics and morphodynamics under variable wave conditions.

Changes in beach shoreline due to sea level rise and waves under climate change scenarios: application to the Balearic Islands (western Mediterranean) [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017
This work assesses the impacts in reshaping coastlines as a result of sea level rise and changes in wave climate. The methodology proposed combines the SWAN and SWASH wave models to resolve the wave processes from deep waters up to the swash zone in ...

Vertical structure of near-bed cross-shore flow velocities in the swash zone of a dissipative beach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Cross-shore velocity profiles are measured at 0.001m vertical resolution and at 100Hz over the lower 0.02-0.07m of the water column in the mid swash zone on a dissipative, macrotidal beach.

Composition, structure and zonation of intertidal macrofauna in relation to physical factors in microtidal sandy beaches at Río de Janeiro State, Brazil

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2003
The intertidal macroinfauna of fiftheen exposed sandy beaches located in Rio de Janeiro State was studied to determine species richness, density, biomass and zonation. Morphodynamic influence on biological parameters is also evaluated in this paper. Dean´
