Numerical models of salt marsh evolution: Ecological, geomorphic, and climatic factors

S Fagherazzi, ML Kirwan, SM Mudd… - Reviews of …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Salt marshes are delicate landforms at the boundary between the sea and land. These

Salt marsh dynamics in a period of accelerated sea level rise

S Fagherazzi, G Mariotti, N Leonardi… - Journal of …, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Salt marshes are dynamic systems able to laterally expand, contract, and vertically accrete

Vegetation causes channel erosion in a tidal landscape

S Temmerman, TJ Bouma, J Van de Koppel… - …, 2007 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Vegetation is traditionally regarded to reduce the erosion of channels in both fluvial and tidal
landscapes. We present a coupled hydrodynamic, morphodynamic, and plant growth model …

C Paola, RR Twilley, DA Edmonds… - Annual review of …, 2011 - annualreviews.org
Restoration of river deltas involves diverting sediment and water from major channels into
adjoining drowned areas, where the sediment can build new land and provide a platform for …

Landscape evolution in tidal embayments: Modeling the interplay of erosion, sedimentation, and vegetation dynamics

A D'Alpaos, S Lanzoni, M Marani… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
We propose an ecomorphodynamic model which conceptualizes the chief land‐forming
processes operating on the intertwined, long‐term evolution of marsh platforms and …

Statistical analysis of drainage density from digital terrain data

GE Tucker, F Catani, A Rinaldo, RL Bras - Geomorphology, 2001 - Elsevier
Drainage density (Dd), defined as the total length of channels per unit area, is a fundamental
