Lagoons are highly productive coastal features that provide a range of natural services that
society values. Their setting within the coastal landscape leaves them especially vulnerable …

Wave‐current interactions play a major role in the dynamics of shallow tidal inlets. This study
investigates these interactions at a natural inlet, with a strong focus on current‐induced …

Among the different types of tidal inlets, wave-dominated inlets have been subjected to few
quantitative studies, so that the physical processes controlling their dynamics are not fully …

潮汐汊道是潮流作用占优势的沉积环境之一. 潮汐汊道系统的口门水道往往是天然航道,

This work describes the application of hydrodynamic (ELCIRC) and transport (VELA and
VELApart) models to the Ria Formosa lagoon (Portugal) to study the impact of the relocation …

Abstract The Lagoon of Nador (Morocco) has been subject to relevant man-made changes
in recent years, which consisted of closing the inlet and opening a new one, wider and …

Estuarine systems currently face increasing pressure due to population growth, rapid
economic development, and the effect of climate change, which threatens the deterioration …

Although rising global sea levels will affect the estuarine flooded areas over the coming
decades, the local and regional-scale processes will also induce important changes in these …

This study reports the role of waves, tide, wind and freshwater discharges over the sea level
in Óbidos Lagoon, a coastal system connected to the sea through a narrow and shallow …

The Atlantic western coast of Portugal includes several shallow coastal lagoons, such as
Óbidos, Albufeira and Santo André, that are intermittently closed to the ocean by sand …
