Beach and Dune Erosion: Causes and Interventions, Case Study: Kaulon Archaeological Site

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
The dune systems are very important from an environmental, landscape, and coastal defense point of view within coastal areas. Currently, dune systems are significantly reduced compared to a few decades ago and, in Europe alone, dune systems have ...

Evaluation of Human Interventions on Longshore Sediment Transport in Damietta Port Area [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation in Civil Engineering
Coastal regions are increasingly vulnerable to climate change-induced hazards such as erosion, with the combination of environmental threats and human activities exacerbating the vulnerability of these ecosystems.

Dynamical Projections of the Mean and Extreme Wave Climate in the Bohai Sea, Yellow Sea and East China Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Few studies have focused on the projected future changes in wave climate in the Chinese marginal seas. For the first time, we investigate the projected changes of the mean and extreme wave climate over the Bohai Sea, Yellow Sea, and East China Sea (BYE ...

Investigating the impact of climate change on the UK wave power climate

open access: yesMeteorologische Zeitschrift, 2017
We explore the impact of climate change, and its uncertainty, on the prospects for wave power generation at two sites off the south-west and north-west coasts of Britain.

Influence of Wave Climate on Intra and Inter-Annual Nearshore Bar Dynamics for a Sandy Beach

open access: yesGeosciences, 2021
The study investigates cross-shore outer sand bar dynamics in an open-coast non-tidal beach at the Bulgarian Black Sea due to wave climate. On seasonal to short-term (1–2 years) time scale, monthly field measurements of the outer bar profiles were ...

Sensitivity of Wave Energy to Climate Change [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Energy Conversion, 2005
Wave energy will have a key role in meeting renewable energy targets en route to a low carbon economy. However, in common with other renewables, it may be sensitive to changes in climate resulting from rising carbon emissions. Changes in wind patterns are widely anticipated, and this will ultimately alter wave regimes.

On the role of wave climate temporal variability in bias correction of wave climate projections

open access: yes, 2022
Abstract This work presents the performance analysis of a multi-model ensembleof wave climate projections in the Mediterranean Sea against hindcastdata. The wave projections were developed with the numerical modelWavewatch III forced by surface wind fields of 17 EURO-CORDEXGCM-RCMs providing time series of the main wave parameters on a 3-hour ...

Spatial variations in the Caspian Sea wave climate in 2002–2013 from satellite altimetry [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2019
The core properties of the wave climate and its changes in the Caspian Sea are established in terms of the annual mean significant wave height and its regional changes in 2002–2013 based on the outcome of the satellite altimetry mission JASON-1. Remotely

Northern Hemisphere Stationary Waves in a Changing Climate [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Climate Change Reports, 2019
Abstract Purpose of Review Stationary waves are planetary-scale longitudinal variations in the time-averaged atmospheric circulation. Here, we consider the projected response of Northern Hemisphere stationary waves to climate change in winter and summer.
