The mobility of coastal dunes is characterised by bio-geomorphological responses related to
change in boundary conditions, particularly sediment supply, wind and vegetation cover, as …

On 10th March 2008, the high energy storm Johanna hit the French Atlantic coast,
generating severe dune erosion on Vougot Beach (Brittany, France). In this paper, the …

Coastal dunes, in particular foredunes, support a resilient ecosystem and reduce coastal
vulnerability to storms. In contrast to dry desert dunes, coastal dunes arise from interactions …

Indicators of natural disaster resilience are factors that impact the ability to cope with and
adapt to a natural disaster and climate change events. They can either contribute to or …

A 2DH numerical, model which is capable of computing nearshore circulation and
morphodynamics, including dune erosion, breaching and overwash, is used to simulate …

The response of a barrier island to an extreme storm depends in part on the surge elevation
relative to the height and extent of the foredunes which can exhibit considerable variability …

Arctic coastal infrastructure and cultural and archeological sites are increasingly vulnerable
to erosion and flooding due to amplified warming of the Arctic, sea level rise, lengthening of …

Wave-dominated and mixed-energy barriers are extremely dynamic landforms, responding
to processes operating over a spectrum of time scales, ranging from daily-to-monthly …

The high water level and extreme waves that occur during a storm may threaten coastal
landscapes, including densely populated zones that may also suffer from erosion …

Abstract The recovery of Santa Rosa Island in northwest Florida is characterized following
Hurricane Katrina (September 2005), which was preceded by Hurricanes Ivan (2004) and …
