Models can play a fundamental role while moving from nourishment projects to nourishment
plans, ie, when nourishment becomes an integral component of a coastal management …

An 11-year long measurement time series of waves and profiles from Duck, North Carolina,
was analyzed using canonical correlation analysis (CCA) in order to determine the …

A novel and simple beach-evolution model for estimating shoreline rotation at sandy pocket
beaches is presented. The model is based on the assumption that the instantaneous …

The concept of equilibrium plan form and equilibrium profile has been widely used as an
engineering tool in order to design beach nourishment projects. The scope of this paper is to …
