    • 8.18 - Rhythmic Coastal Landforms 

      Giovanni, Coco; Calvete Manrique, Daniel; Bryan, K.R.; Murray, A.B. (Elsevier, 2022)
      Capítol de llibre
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      Coastal landforms can sometimes result in unique and visually mesmerizing spatially-organized patterns. Different spatial patterns develop over scales ranging from centimeters to tens of kilometers, and are observed at the ...

    • Breaching of a barrier beach under extreme events: the role of morphodynamic simulations 

      Gracia Garcia, Vicente; García León, Manuel; Grifoll Colls, Manel; Sánchez-Arcilla Conejo, Agustín (Coastal Education Research Foundation (CERF), Coastal Processes Research Group, School of Marine Science and Engineering, Plymouth University, 2013)
      Text en actes de congrés
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      A study of three breaching episodes of the Trabucador barrier beach (Spanish Mediterranean coast) is presented. The analysis is done from a modeling perspective using XBEACH and SWAN. The morphodynamic model (XBEACH) has ...

    • Coastal adaptation and uncertainties: the need of ethics for a shared coastal future 

      Sánchez-Arcilla Conejo, Agustín; Gracia Garcia, Vicente; Mösso Aranda, César; Cáceres Rabionet, Iván; González Marco, Daniel; Gómez Aguar, Jesús Javier (Frontiers Media, 2021-09)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Coastal hydro-morphodynamics present significant uncertainties, one order of magnitude larger for sediment transport than for the driving hydrodynamics. Met-ocean factors (waves, currents and levels essentially) are normally ...

    • Coastal flooding and erosion under a changing climate: implications at a low-lying coast (Ebro delta) 

      Grases, Albert; Gracia Garcia, Vicente; García León, Manuel; Lin Ye, Jue; Sierra Pedrico, Juan Pablo (2020-02)
      Article
      Accés obert
      Episodic coastal hazards associated to sea storms are responsible for sudden and intense changes in coastal morphology. Climate change and local anthropogenic activities such as river regulation and urban growth are raising ...

    • Effects of sea level rise on the formation and drowning of shoreface-connected sand ridges, a model study 

      Nnafie, Abdel; Swart, Huib E. de; Calvete Manrique, Daniel; Garnier, Roland (2014-06-01)
      Article
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      Shoreface-connected sand ridges occur on many storm-dominated inner shelves. These rhythmic features have an along-shelf spacing of 2-10 km, a height of 1-12 m, they evolve on timescales of centuries and they migrate several ...

    • Modeling the response of shoreface-connected sand ridges to sand extraction on an inner shelf 

      Nnafie, abdel; Swart, Huib E. de; Calvete Manrique, Daniel; Garnier, Roland (2014-05-01)
      Article
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      Shoreface-connected sand ridges are rhythmic bedforms that occur on many storm-dominated inner shelves. The ridges span several kilometers, are a few meters high, and they evolve on a timescale of centuries. A process-based ...

    • Modelling the morphodynamic evolution of the Llobregat Delta during the coming decades 

      López Merino, Lucas (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2023-02-02)
      Treball Final de Grau
      Accés obert
      During the last decades, the coast of the Llobregat Delta has suffered a slow process of shoreline recession and sediment erosion. Climate change and the sea level rise it entails will only exacerbate these erosive trends, ...

    • Morphodynamic studies in sandy Amazonian environments 

      Cajueiro Carneiro Pereira, Luci; Trindade, Wellington N.; do Nascimento, Anderson Thiago; Vila Concejo, Ana; Jiménez Quintana, José Antonio (2020-03)
      Article
      Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
      The present study evaluated the different morphodynamic scenarios that arise under varying tidal and wave conditions on a sandy beach (Ajuruteua) and an exposed tidal flat (Vila dos Pescadores) on the Amazon coast of ...

    • Sediment transport and beach profile evolution induced by bi-chromatic wave groups with different group periods 

      Alsina Torrent, José María; Padilla, Enrique; Cáceres Rabionet, Iván (2016-08)
      Article
      Accés obert
      In this paper, large-scale experimental data are presented showing the beach profile morphological evolution induced by four different bi-chromatic wave conditions characterized by very similar energy content between them ...
