The swash zone largely influences nearshore hydrodynamics and morphodynamics through
dissipating or reflecting wave energy and controlling whether sediment will be stored on the …

Baltic amber, adored for its beauty already in Homer's Odyssey (ca. 800 BCE), has its
material density close to that of wide-spread plastics like polyamide, polystyrene, or acrylic …

Scientific research on sediment dynamics in the coastal zone and along the littoral zone has
evolved considerably over the last four decades. It benefits from a technological revolution …

We present a comprehensive and critical review of work on the numerical modelling of
swash zone processes between 2005 and 2015. A wide range of numerical models has …

The main goal of this paper is to provide insights into swash flow dynamics, generated by a
non-breaking solitary wave on a steep slope. Both laboratory experiments and numerical …

This study introduces a model based on Richards' equation to describe variably-saturated
beach groundwater flow. The surface wave propagation is computed by the phase-resolving …

Groundwater dynamics in the coastal unconfined aquifer is one of the most important
physical factors in the coastal zone since it greatly influences the nearshore hydrodynamics …

Large scale laboratory measurements of sediment dynamics in the swash zone are
presented. Two bichromatic wave group conditions were generated, having the same …

This paper analyzes the modeling of the hydro-and morphodynamics of bichromatic wave
groups on an intermediate beach with an initial 1∶ 15 slope. The nonhydrostatic version of …

Coastal beach aquifers are biogeochemically active systems that mediate chemical and
material fluxes across the land-sea interface. This paper provides a review of major physical …
