This paper is the product of the wave modelling community and it tries to make a picture of
the present situation in this branch of science, exploring the previous and the most recent …

An increasing number of instances in extreme weather events over the global oceans have
deepened the concerns on the impact of climate change. The frequency of extreme weather …

Measurements of wave and suspended sediment concentration (SSC) were conducted near
the 5-m isobath on the muddy inner shelf fronting Atchafalaya Bay, Louisiana, during …

Techniques for measurement, modeling, and management of fluid mud are available, but
research is needed to improve them. Fluid mud can be difficult to detect, measure, or …

Muddy seafloors cause tremendous dissipation of ocean waves. Here, observations and
numerical simulations of waves propagating between 5‐and 2‐m water depths across the …

Field observations from the spring of 2008 on the Louisiana shelf were used to elucidate the
mechanisms of wave energy dissipation over a muddy seafloor. After a period of high …

Observations of wave and sediment processes collected at two locations on the Atchafalaya
inner shelf show that wave dissipation in shallow, muddy environments is strongly coupled …

A theory is presented for the mass transport induced by a small-amplitude progressive wave
propagating in water over a thin layer of viscoelastic mud modelled as a Voigt medium …

The effect of a thin viscous fluid–mud layer on nearshore nonlinear wave–wave interactions
is studied using a parabolic frequency-domain nonlinear wave model, modified to …

The impact of a non-rigid seafloor on the wave climate at Cassino Beach, Brazil, May–June
2005 is studied using field measurements and a numerical wave model. The measurements …
