Comparative Study of Wave-Resolving Models for Typhoon-Induced Harbor Oscillations

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
This study investigates typhoon-induced oscillations within Youngan Harbor, southwestern Taiwan, which frequently compromise port operations and cause dock overtopping. Two representative wave-resolving models, the Boussinesq-type FUNWAVE-TVD and the non-

A Generalized Data‐Driven Shoreline Model at the Regional Scale

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Shoreline models underpin long‐term coastal planning and hazard mitigation but are often limited by site‐specific calibration and simplified process representations. While machine learning (ML) approaches have recently matched or exceeded the skill of traditional models in deterministic shoreline forecasting, they have yet to demonstrate ...

Stormtools Design Elevation (SDE) Maps: Including Impact of Sea Level Rise

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Many coastal communities in the US use base flood elevation (BFE) maps for the 100-year return period, specified on Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRMs), to design structures and infrastructure.

Present and future flooding and erosion along the NW Spanish Mediterranean Coast

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Coastal flooding and eros-ion caused by extreme events are the main factors responsible for beach hazards. This effect will be exacerbated by the sea level rise induced by climate change.

Coral Reef Protection May Help Avert Risks to People, Property, and Economic Activity Caused by Projected Reef Degradation

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Degradation of coral reefs over the past several decades has caused regional‐scale erosion of the shallow seafloor that serves as a protective barrier against coastal hazards along southeast Florida, USA. How future change in coral reefs may affect coastal flooding, however, has been less attended than other factors contributing to increasing ...

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.

Modeling the Influence of Grounded Landfast Ice on Nearshore Sediment Transport

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Grounded landfast ice is common along mid to high latitude coasts in the northern hemisphere, but its geomorphic impact is poorly understood due to a lack of targeted studies and conflicting observations of ice as both a protective and erosive feature.

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 ...

Computationally Efficient Hybrid Downscaling of Surf Zone Hydrodynamics: Methodology and Evaluation

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 2, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract We present a hybrid surf‐zone model that combines numerical simulations and statistical/machine learning techniques, enabling accurate calculations of nearshore wave and hydrodynamic parameters with high computational efficiency. The approach involves defining representative forcing conditions, carrying out numerical model (XBeach) simulations
