Improving predictions of swash dynamics in XBeach: The role of groupiness and incident-band runup
, 2018 In predicting storm impacts on sandy coasts, possibly with structures, accurate runup and overtopping simulation is an important aspect. Recent investigations (Stockdon et al., 2014; Palmsten and Splinter, 2016) show that despite accurate predictions of ...

Assessing the Port Footprint on Coastal Flood and Erosion Risks
Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 10, October 2025.Abstract Ports are often perceived as sources of disruption to coastal environments, contributing to sediment imbalance, shoreline erosion and ecosystem service loss. However, this framing overlooks the broader, system‐scale influence that ports can exert on coastal dynamism and flood risk.

Beach response to breakwater layouts of drainage pipe outlets during beach nourishment
Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2019 Managing drainage pipes to optimize beach nourishment is a complex problem. In this study, the ‘salient’ landform is explored as a feasible plan that considers beach nourishment and breakwater geometry of the drainage pipe outlets.

Geotechnical Stability Analysis of Dune Face Erosion by Waves
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.Abstract Predicting the extent of wave‐driven dune erosion under wave impact and elevated water levels will improve our ability to safeguard the livelihood of ecosystems, communities and infrastructure living behind sandy beaches worldwide. However, the geophysical processes leading to time‐dependent dune face failures are still not fully understood ...

HyCReWW: A Hybrid Coral Reef Wave and Water level metamodel
Computational Geosciences, 2019 Wave-induced flooding is a major coastal hazard on tropical islands fronted by coral reefs. The variability of shape, size, and physical characteristics of the reefs across the globe make it difficult to obtain a parameterization of wave run-up, which is

Numerical Simulation of Dam Breach with XBeach
, 2022 A dam breach is defined as the uncontrolled release of material retained in the impoundment. The resulting flow of water, or mine waste can be catastrophic to the environment, local infrastructure, and human life.

Observations of Sea‐Swell Wave Reflection From a Steep, Nearshore Bar
Earth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 4, April 2025.Abstract Wave reflection near the beach affects the energy reaching the shore, surfzone wave conditions, and sediment transport. Many prior studies have shown strong reflection of infragravity (0.01 < frequency < 0.05 Hz) wave energy from steep foreshore slopes.

Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 4, April 2025.Abstract Coral atoll islands, common in (sub)tropical oceans, consist of low‐lying accumulations of carbonate sediment produced by fringing coral reef systems and are of great socio‐economic and ecological importance. Previous studies have predicted that many atoll islands will become uninhabitable before the end of this century due to sea level rise ...

Future Coastal Tundra Loss Due To Compounding Environmental Changes in Alaska
Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 130, Issue 4, April 2025.Abstract Anthropogenic climate change is amplified in the Arctic, where less sea ice enables more energetic wave climates while higher air and soil temperatures increase tundra erodibility. These compounding environmental changes are likely to exacerbate retreat of coastal tundra yet remain poorly constrained on timescales relevant to storm wave ...
