This review focuses on recent advances in process-based numerical models of the impact of
extreme storms on sandy coasts. Driven by larger-scale models of meteorology and …

The paper is motivated by a present lack of clear model performance guidelines for shelf sea
and estuarine modellers seeking to demonstrate to clients and end users that a model is fit …

A new nearshore numerical model approach to assess the natural coastal response during
time-varying storm and hurricane conditions, including dune erosion, overwash and …

Attention is given to the properties of sediment beds over the full range of conditions (silts to
gravel), in particular the effect of fine silt on the bed composition and on initiation of motion …

This classic text, now in its sixth edition, combines a thorough coverage of the basic
principles of civil engineering hydraulics with a wide-ranging treatment of practical, real …

This contribution describes the development, calibration and verification of a 1-D behaviour-
orientated shoreline prediction model. The model primarily encapsulates shoreline …

Evaluating the performance of numerical models of coastal morphology against
observations is an essential part of establishing their credibility. In the past, this has usually …

Worldwide, climate change adaptation in coastal areas is a growing challenge. The most
common solutions such as seawalls and breakwaters are expensive and often lead to …

Sand nourishments are presently widely applied to maintain or enhance coastal safety and
beach width. Over the last decades, global sand nourishment volumes have increased …

Impacts of storms in reshaping coastlines are well known. Also, the far greater impact of
clusters of storms, where storms occur at close succession, has been noted in a number of …
