Statistical distribution of swash maxima on natural beaches

Creator:

Holland, K. Todd

Abstract:

Beach response to overwash processes is a topic of significant importance. Two particular aspects of this topic were chosen for detailed analysis: the distribution of maximum wave runup elevations and the cross-beach celerity gradient of overwash bores on natural beaches. Data were collected using both traditional nearshore instrumentation and recently...
