Predicting wave overtopping thresholds on coral reef-island shorelines with future sea-level rise [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2018 Sea-level rise will exacerbate wave overtopping on low-lying coral reef islands. Here the authors present a novel method that quantifies wave overtopping thresholds and associated reef-island vulnerability trajectories based on differences in local wave ...

Experimental measurement of focused wave group and solitary wave overtopping [PDF]
Journal of Hydraulic Research/De Recherches Hydrauliques, 2011 Prediction of individual wave overtopping events is important in assessing danger to life and property, but data are sparse and hydrodynamic understanding is lacking.

Experimental Investigation of Wave Propagation and Overtopping over Seawalls on a Reef Flat
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 A series of physical model tests were performed to investigate the wave propagation, pressure, and wave overtopping processes for vertical and sloped seawalls on the reef flat.

Remote Sensing of Wave Overtopping on Dynamic Coastal Structures
Remote Sensing, 2022 The development of coastal regions combined with rising sea levels is leading to an increasing risk of coastal flooding caused by wave overtopping of natural beaches and engineered coastal structures.

WAVE OVERTOPPING SIMULATOR TESTS IN VIET NAM [PDF]
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2011 Sea dikes in Viet Nam have been built up during a long history. Every year, about 4 to 6 storms attack the coast and cause severe damages of the sea dikes. Till now, little is known about strength and stability of the inner slope covered with grass under impacts of wave overtopping during storm surges.

Characterization of Overtopping Waves on Sea Dikes with Gentle and Shallow Foreshores
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 Due to ongoing climate change, overtopping risk is increasing. In order to have effective countermeasures, it is useful to understand overtopping processes in details.

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Wave overtopping is a critical parameter in the design of coastal defense structures. Nowadays, several empirical formulations based on small-scale experiments are available in the literature to predict the mean overtopping discharge at dikes on shallow ...

Wave overtopping at dykes with topped vertical wall - Impacts of oblique wave attack [PDF]
, 2012 Hydraulic model tests at a scale of 1:10 are carried out in a 40 m x 25 m wave basin with a state-of-the-art 3D wave generator in order to collect wave overtopping data at vertical walls and dykes with topped vertical walls.
