Sensitivity of Storm Response to Antecedent Topography in the XBeach Model [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Antecedent topography is an important aspect of coastal morphology when studying and forecasting coastal change hazards. The uncertainty in morphologic response of storm-impact models and their use in short-term hazard forecasting and decadal forecasting

Application of the XBeach-Gravel Model for the Case of East Adriatic Sea-Wave Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Croatia’s coast located on the eastern Adriatic is rich with small gravel beaches with limited fetch. This leads to a specific low-energetic wave climate compared to most other beaches, while their gravel composition makes them unique. Most management of

Wave induced coastal flooding along the southwest coast of India during tropical cyclone Tauktae [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
The coastal flood during the tropical cyclone Tauktae, 2021, at Chellanam coast, Kerala, India, has invited wide attention as the wave overtopping severely affected coastal properties and livelihood.

Linking management planning for coastal wetlands to potential future wave attenuation under a range of relative sea-level rise scenarios. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Understanding changes in wave attenuation by emergent vegetation as wetlands degrade or accrete over time is crucial for incorporation of wetlands into holistic coastal risk management.

Modelling the Effect of ‘Roller Dynamics’ on Storm Erosion: Sylt, North Sea

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Coastal storm erosion can lead to episodic morphological changes and hinterland flooding that requires sustainable management. An accurate estimation of storm erosion can determine the success of hazard mitigation strategies.

Estimating dune erosion at the regional scale using a meta-model based on neural networks [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022
Sandy beaches and dune systems have high recreational and ecological value, and they offer protection against flooding during storms. At the same time, these systems are very vulnerable to storm impacts.

Proposal of Parameter Range that Offered Optimal Performance in the Coastal Morphodynamic Model (XBeach) Through GLUE

open access: yes한국해양공학회지, 2022
The process-based XBeach model has numerous empirical parameters because of insufficient understanding of hydrodynamics and sediment transport on the nearshore; hence, it is necessary to calibrate parameters to apply to various study areas and wave ...

Considering the Effect of Land-Based Biomass on Dune Erosion Volumes in Large-Scale Numerical Modeling

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
This paper presents and validates a novel root model which accounts for the effect of belowground biomass on dune erosion volumes in XBeach, based on a small-scale wave flume experiment that was translated to a larger scale.

Can an early-warning system help minimize the impacts of coastal storms? A case study of the 2012 Halloween storm, northern Italy [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2016
The Emilia-Romagna early-warning system (ER-EWS) is a state-of-the-art coastal forecasting system that comprises a series of numerical models (COSMO, ROMS, SWAN and XBeach) to obtain a daily 3-day forecast of coastal storm hazard at eight key sites along

Quantifying Mechanisms Responsible for Extreme Coastal Water Levels and Flooding during Severe Tropical Cyclone Harold in Tonga, Southwest Pacific

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
The South Pacific region is characterised by steep shelves and fringing coral reef islands. The lack of wide continental shelves that can dissipate waves makes Pacific Island countries vulnerable to large waves that can enhance extreme total water levels
