Wave Energy Transfer in Shallow Water: Numerical Investigation of Slope and Offshore Wave Condition Effects

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract This study advances the understanding of nonlinear wave interactions in shallow water by numerically quantifying how foreshore slope and offshore conditions influence energy transfer and wave evolution over a broad range of conditions. Two non‐hydrostatic models, SWASH and XBeach, are validated against physical experiments and applied across a

Characterization of Overtopping Volumes from Focused Wave Groups over Smooth Dikes with an Emerged Toe: Insights from Physical Model Tests

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
This research examines the overtopping volumes associated with focused wave groups on smooth dikes with an emerged toe. Focused wave groups are employed to represent the highest waves of random sea states in a compact form, obviating the need to model ...

Spatial Variability and Drivers of Salt Marsh Cliff Erosion in the Dutch Wadden Sea: From Observation to Simulation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Lateral erosion of salt marshes via cliff retreat is a primary cause of global marsh loss, driven by interactions between hydrodynamics, sediment, and vegetation. While previous studies show a linear relationship between wave power and cliff retreat, models based on this relationship are largely unvalidated for short‐term (sub‐yearly) and ...

Extreme Heat and Rainfall Risk Attributed to Cumulative CO2 Emissions From Fossil Fuel Producers

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Legal and political approaches to climate accountability require demonstrating that a particular emitter contributed to a climate impact, but quantitative solutions to this attribution challenge remain nascent. This study leverages the proportionality of global warming to cumulative CO2 emissions to develop statistical models that directly ...

Glacial Imprints and Marine Overprints: Sediment Architecture and Fjord Evolution in Fiordland, New Zealand

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Fjords are globally significant sedimentary archives that record the relationship between glacial, tectonic, and marine processes. Fiordland, on the southwest coast of New Zealand, hosts one of the most extensive temperate fjord provinces in the Southern Hemisphere, yet its postglacial evolution has remained poorly constrained.

Experimental Update of the Overtopping Model Used for the Wave Dragon Wave Energy Converter

Energies, 2013
An overtopping model specifically suited for Wave Dragon is needed in order to improve the reliability of its performance estimates. The model shall be comprehensive of all relevant physical processes that affect overtopping and flexible to adapt to any ...

Wave overtopping at rubble mound breakwaters with a non-reshaping berm [PDF]

, 2012
Wave overtopping was investigated by means of a physical model. The breakwater scale model was divided into 8 collection bins. Overtopped volumes were collected and pumped into floating tanks further down the flume.

Distribution of individual wave overtopping volumes at rubble mound seawalls

, 2022
For a safe design of a rubble mound seawall, overtopping characteristics such as the mean overtopping discharge (q) and the maximum individual overtopping volume (Vmax) should be limited.

A Laboratory experiment of wave overtopping over dike on steep fringing reef

Journal of Applied Science and Engineering
This paper presents a laboratory study to investigate the wave overtopping over dike on the fringing reef with a large steep fore-reef slope. The experimented models were set up in wave flume, considering three different slopes of dike combined with ...
