Experimental study on toe scouring at sloping walls with gravel foreshores [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Sea defences, such as urban seawalls can fail due to the development of a scour hole at the toe of the structure. The scour depth or the information on ground levels at the structure toe is required for the sustainable management of coastal defences, due

Invertebrate Biodiversity Associated With a Unique Bryozoan Biogenic Reef Complex (Western Port, Victoria, Australia)

open access: yesAustral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT A unique biogenic bryozoan reef has been recently discovered in Western Port (a temperate embayment), Victoria, Australia. This reef is significant owing to its contiguous, regular, linear rows of densely stacked bryozoan colonies with large vertical relief. We aimed to (1) document the biodiversity of the macroinvertebrate epifauna associated

Natural Coral Colonization of a Marina Seawall in Singapore [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Marinas require extensive modification of a natural coast. The resulting modified habitat is known to supportchanged biological communities but the ability of tropical marinas to function as a surrogate habitat forscleractinian corals has not been well ...

A hybrid method for modelling two dimensional non-breaking and breaking waves [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This is the first paper to present a hybrid method coupling a Improved Meshless Local Petrov Galerkin method with Rankine source solution (IMLPG_R) based on the Navier Stokes (NS) equations, with a finite element method (FEM) based on the fully nonlinear

Reservoir Regulation has Brought a Classic River‐Dominated Delta Under Human Control

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.
Abstract Damming of wild rivers has trapped vast quantities of sediment that would otherwise nourish deltas, causing severe sediment deficits and accelerating delta erosion worldwide. The Yellow River Delta (YRD), once prograding seaward at ∼10 km2/yr, began retreating at −5.6 km2/yr following completion of the Xiaolangdi Reservoir.

Ocean Wave Energy Generators and Self‐Powered Wave Sensors Based on Triboelectric Nanogenerators

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2026.
The key milestones of ocean wave energy‐driven triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) from 2015 to 2024. The development of ocean wave energy‐driven TENGs has undergone multiple stages of evolution, particularly in the design of their outer structures, with the goal of more efficiently utilizing ocean wave motion.

Strategies for achieving real‐world robustness in topologically engineered surfaces with special wettability

open access: yesDroplet, Volume 5, Issue 1, January 2026.
Engineered topologies surfaces with special wettability are promising for their ability to precisely customize wetting behaviors and incorporate versatile functionalities, setting them apart from randomly structured surfaces. However, robustness and durability have been hurdles to their broad application.

ANEMONE Global's First eDNA‐Based Assessment: Insights Toward a Standardized Global Monitoring Network

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.
Using a standardized eDNA metabarcoding workflow across 12 countries, ANEMONE Global reveals large‐scale patterns in coastal fish biodiversity shaped by habitat complexity, ocean basin, and diel variation. The study demonstrates the feasibility of globally coordinated, high‐resolution marine biodiversity monitoring using eDNA.

Small Scale Physical Measurement of Wave Overtopping For Different Shore Protection Structures

open access: yesInternational Journal of Maritime Technology, 2019
Using artificial constructions is one of the most important ways to protect shores against wave actions and the consequent erosion. Due to costly nature of large scale marine projects, it is considered an efficient approach to study small scale model of ...
