Worldwide, climate change adaptation in coastal areas is a growing challenge. The most
common solutions such as seawalls and breakwaters are expensive and often lead to …

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 …

Impacts of storm clustering on beach/dune morphodynamics were investigated by applying
the state-of-the-art numerical model XBeach to Formby Point (Sefton coast, UK). The …

Coastal landscape change represents aggregated sediment transport gradients from
spatially and temporally variable marine and aeolian forces. Numerous tools exist that …

The accurate prediction of extreme wave run-up is important for effective coastal
engineering design and coastal hazard management. While run-up processes on open …

The study aims to calibrate/validate and apply the dune-erosion model, XBeach, in order to
predict morphological response to storm events along a meso-tidal, steeply slo** beach …

The definition of storm morphological thresholds along the coast of the Emilia-Romagna
Region strictly depends on its configuration and variability. The region is located in northern …

Coastlines along the St. Lawrence Estuary and Gulf, Eastern Canada, are under increasing
risk of flooding due to sea level rise and sea ice shrinking. Efficient and validated regional …

Abstract The Pacific Northwest of the United States exhibits complex spatial patterns of storm-
induced coastal foredune erosion. Using oceanographic and morphologic data from three …

Advanced numerical models used to predict coastal change at a variety of time and spatial
scales often contain many free parameters that require calibration to the available field data …
