A Multi-Scale Numerical Analysis of Wave Propagation Through Coastal Vegetation Using Proteus & XBeach [PDF]

Coastal vegetation attenuates waves in the nearshore zone and protects shorelines from storm surge and wave action. It also traps nutrients and sediment, and participates in the formation of land over longer time scales. These features of vegetation make

Avaliação do modelo de erosão de praias e dunas xbeach: resultados preliminares

, 2012
Este estudo visou melhorar a avaliação/previsão da vulnerabilidade de praias à acção de tempestades marítimas, através da avaliação do desempenho do modelo XBeach relativamente ao modelo Litprof (um dos mais eficazes nesta área).
