Is barrier island morphology a function of tidal and wave regime?
Classification of barrier island morphology stems from the seminal work of MO Hayes and
others, which linked island shape to tidal range and wave height and defined coastal energy …

Geological constraints on mesoscale coastal barrier behaviour
Barrier/lagoon systems occupy a significant part of the world's coast. They are diverse in
size, morphology, geological and oceanographic setting, and morphodynamic behaviour …

Coastal lagoons and rising sea level: A review
Sea-level rise (SLR) poses a particularly ominous threat to human habitations and
infrastructure in the coastal zone because 10% of the world's population lives in low-lying …

Rollover, drowning, and discontinuous retreat: Distinct modes of barrier response to sea‐level rise arising from a simple morphodynamic model
We construct a simple morphodynamic model to investigate the long‐term dynamic
evolution of a coastal barrier system experiencing sea‐level rise. Using a simplified barrier …

Review and direct evidence of transgressive aeolian sand sheet and dunefield initiation
The multiple hypotheses which exist to explain the initiation of transgressive aeolian sand
sheets and dunefields, are reviewed and discussed. Direct evidence supporting many of …

Sound‐side inundation and seaward erosion of a barrier Island during Hurricane landfall
Barrier islands are especially vulnerable to hurricanes and other large storms, owing to their
mobile composition, low elevations, and detachment from the mainland. Conceptual models …

Crossing scales: The complexity of barrier-island processes for predicting future change
Barrier islands are heavily influenced by external drivers such as sea-level rise, storm-
related disturbances, and other complex factors that affect net sediment exchange …

[HTML][HTML] Geomorphic insights into Australia's coastal change using a national dataset derived from the multi-decadal Landsat archive
Australia has a vast, diverse and dynamic shoreline, and national perspectives on the
mechanisms, magnitude and trajectories of coastal adjustment are required to underpin …

Holocene evolution of the wave-dominated embayed Moruya coastline, southeastern Australia: Sediment sources, transport rates and alongshore interconnectivity
Sediment budgets on wave-dominated coastlines are important in determining shoreline
behaviour and are primarily inherited from geological-scale coastal evolutionary history …

Inundation of a barrier island (Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana, USA) during a hurricane: Observed water‐level gradients and modeled seaward sand transport
Large geomorphic changes to barrier islands may occur during inundation, when storm
surge exceeds island elevation. Inundation occurs episodically and under energetic …
