Role of wave forcing, storms and NAO in outer bar dynamics on a high-energy, macro-tidal beach

G Masselink, M Austin, T Scott, T Poate, P Russell - Geomorphology, 2014 - Elsevier
Outer sand bar dynamics on a high-energy macro-tidal beach were investigated using long-

Dynamics of rip currents associated with groynes—field measurements, modelling and implications for beach safety

T Scott, M Austin, G Masselink, P Russell - Coastal Engineering, 2016 - Elsevier
Rip currents can occur around groynes and other coastal structures (eg breakwaters and
geological headlands), which provide a boundary to the wave-induced flow field and …

The influence of seasonal to interannual nearshore profile variability on extreme water levels: Modeling wave runup on dissipative beaches

N Cohn, P Ruggiero - Coastal Engineering, 2016 - Elsevier
Wave runup, an important contributor to storm-induced extreme water levels, is commonly
predicted via empirical formulations that parameterize coastal morphology using simple …

Video-based nearshore bathymetry estimation in macro-tidal environments

EWJ Bergsma, DC Conley, MA Davidson, TJ O'Hare - Marine Geology, 2016 - Elsevier
Video-based depth inversion through the linear dispersion relation for free surface waves

Controls on macrotidal rip current circulation and hazard

T Scott, G Masselink, MJ Austin, P Russell - Geomorphology, 2014 - Elsevier
Rip currents are strong, narrow seaward-flowing currents in the surf zone and are common
on energetic sandy beaches. They are generally associated with distinct beach morphology …

Beach state recognition using argus imagery and convolutional neural networks

AN Ellenson, JA Simmons, GW Wilson, TJ Hesser… - Remote Sensing, 2020 - mdpi.com
Nearshore morphology is a key driver in wave breaking and the resulting nearshore

Evaluation of swimmer-based rip current escape strategies

RJ McCarroll, RW Brander, JH MacMahan, IL Turner… - Natural Hazards, 2014 - Springer
Rip currents are the primary hazard on surf beaches, and early studies described them as
fast, shore-normal flows that extended seaward of the surf zone. Based on this traditional …

Surf zone bathymetry and circulation predictions via data assimilation of remote sensing observations

GW Wilson, HT Özkan‐Haller… - Journal of …, 2014 - Wiley Online Library
Bathymetry is a major factor in determining nearshore and surf zone wave transformation
