Reliability analysis of beaches as defenses against storm impacts under a climate change scenario
(2014)
Comunicació de congrés
Accés obertAn analysis of the probability of failure of beaches along the Catalan coast (Northwestern Mediterranean) is presented. The failure condition is defined when waves are able to overtop the beach and reach the backshore. The ... -
Riesgos costeros y técnicas ópticas de observación
(2018-03)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialLa intensificación de la presión de uso sobre nuestro litoral está generando un incremento de los niveles de riesgo, entendido como la probabilidad de un suceso por el valor económico de sus consecuencias. El aumento del ... -
Sediment mobility at Fangar bay entrance (NW Spanish Mediterranean): management implications under present and future climates
(2020-05)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialManaging coastal lagoons, under present and particularly future climate scenarios, requires a robust and yet effective hydro-morphodynamic coupling. This is because the limited water depth and mouth width effectively ... -
Sediment transport and dispersal in the nearshore of “flash-flood” rivers
(2014)
Comunicació de congrés
Accés obertRiver sediment dispersal on the near-shore of “flash-flood” rivers is investigated using a coupled wave-current-sediment transport model. Besòs and Llobregat rivers (short and mountainous rivers in NW Mediterranean Sea, ... -
Sediment transport in the Ebro shelf: a modelling approach
(Taylor & Francis, 2009)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialA sediment transport model has been implemented and calibrated in the Ebro Delta Continental Shelf. Several parameters in the hydrodynamic and sediment transport module have been assessed in order to improve the results ... -
Short-term morphodynamic changes in a fetch limited beach at the Ebro delta (Spain), under low wave-energy conditions
(2011)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés obertSandy beaches in fetch-limited environments are protected from large ocean-generated swell waves, and fetch characteristics allow local wind-generated waves and currents to develop and drive the main morphodynamic processes. ... -

Sistemes costaners i dinàmica litoral
(Institut d'Estudis Catalans (IEC), 2016-09)
Capítol de llibre
Accés obertAquest capítol tracta de la projecció dels impactes de climes futurs per a trams vulnerables de la costa catalana. Al començament, s’hi revisa la geodiversitat de la costa en termes meteorològics i geològics. El ventall ... -
Sustainability of artificial coasts: the Barcelona coast case
(Elsevier, 2015-06)
Capítol de llibre
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialCoastal Zones: Solutions for the 21st Century bridges the gap between national and international efforts and the local needs for actions in communities where coastal zone challenges are faced daily. The solution-oriented ... -
The land–sea coastal border: a quantitative definition by considering the wind and wave conditions in a wave-dominated, micro-tidal environment
(2019-01)
Article
Accés obertA quantitative definition for the land–sea (coastal) transitional area is proposed here for wave-driven areas, based on the variability and isotropy of met-ocean processes. Wind velocity and significant wave height fields ... -
The use of news information published in newspapers to estimate the impact of coastal storms at a regional scale
(MDPI, 2021-05)
Article
Accés obertThe evaluation of coastal damage caused by storms is not straightforward and different approaches can be applied. In this study, damage caused by extreme storms is evaluated at a regional scale based on news information ... -

(GeoEcoMar, 2015)
Llibre
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe DANCERS project through a combination of stakeholder engagement, review of historical projects and programmes and state of the art science has built upon the EUSDR to develop a Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda ... -
Towards the integrated management of the Danube river – Danube Delta – Black Sea system: proposal for the development of human capital
(GeoEcoMar, 2015)
Llibre
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialThe major outcome of this document is a proposal for a new education program for the Danube- Black Sea (DBS) region. In principle the task focuses on different levels of education, namely (i) undergraduate students; (ii) ... -
Tsunami hazards in the Catalan Coast, a low-intensity seismic activity area
(2017-09)
Article
Accés obertThe potential impacts of tsunamis along the Catalan Coast (NW Mediterranean) are analysed using numerical modelling. The region is characterized by moderate to low seismic activity and by moderate- to low-magnitude ... -
Using numerical modelling to analyze beach profiles response to extreme storms along the danube Delta coast, Romania
(GeoEcoMar, 2017)
Article
Accés obertIn recent decades, human interventions along the Danube River have played a major influence on the reduction of sediment supply along the Danube Delta coast, which is nowadays affected by erosion on its widest part. The ...
