The coupled ocean-atmosphere-wave-sediment transport modeling system (COAWST)
enables simulations that integrate oceanic, atmospheric, wave and morphological …

The undertow is one of the most important mechanisms for sediment transport in nearshore
regions. As such, its formulation has been an active subject of research for at least the past …

In this paper, flume experiments are focused on sediment transport inside and outside the
surf zone. According to the energy dissipation balance principle of sediment-laden flow and …

The response of physical models of beach profiles to random breaking waves was studied to
investigate size-selective sediment transport and cross-shore profile evolution. Three types …

A numerical model of undertow due to random waves is developed. The model includes
three sub-models:(i) a model for multi-directional and multi-frequency random wave …

Barred macrotidal beaches are affected by continuous horizontal displacements of different
hydrodynamic zones associated with wave transformation (shoaling, breaker and surf …

Beach profile evolution is a dynamic phenomenon that often leads to threatening
consequences such as severe beach erosion and shoreline retreat. A new comprehensive …

Double-sandbar systems are common along sandy, wave-dominated coastlines. The
evolution of a double-sandbar system is a complex process and is affected not only by the …

Abstract The Pearl River brings fresh water and nutrients into Lake Borgne regulating
conditions for oyster growth in estuarine waters. However, there are no flow measurement …

New analytical formulas for the estimation of wave radiation stress and wave mass flux are
developed in this study based on asymptotic analysis of linear wave theory with the aid of …
