The semi-enclosed nature of the Mediterranean Sea, together with its smaller inertia due to
the relative short residence time of its water masses, make it highly reactive to external …

Modern coastal ocean modeling systems are now capable of numerically simulating a
variety of coastal and estuarine problems and can thus provide useful information for …

Understanding the processes responsible for coastal change is important for managing our
coastal resources, both natural and economic. The current scientific understanding of …

With increasing storminess and incessant sea-level rise, coastal erosion is becoming a
primary issue along many littorals in the world. To cope with present and future climate …

Sedimentation has a prominent impact on the functionality and lifetime of reservoirs and is a
growing concern for stakeholders. Various parameters influence sedimentation caused by …

Abstract The Po-Adriatic region offers an excellent case for reconstructing sediment
provenance and transport pathways of a multi-sourced sediment-routing system. Through a …

Riverine sediment is important for the development of river deltas and for carrying both
nutrients and contaminants into estuaries and coasts. Previous studies of sediment transport …

The effect on waves of the Wave–Current Interaction (WCI) process in the semi-enclosed
Gulf of Venice (northern region of the Adriatic Sea) was investigated using the Coupled …

Understanding the water circulation in oceans and coastal seas is among the key topics of
oceanographic and climate research. Hydrodynamic studies form the basis for many …

Hurricanes can greatly modify the sedimentary record, but our coastal scientific community
has rather limited capability to predict hurricane-induced sediment deposition. A three …
