Remote measurements of waves and currents over complex bathymetry

Creator:

Chickadel, Carmine C. (Carmine Christopher)

Abstract:

Waves are the primary input of energy in the nearshore region, and together with the currents forced through the transfer of momentum that occurs during the wave breaking process they are the principal mechanism for sediment transport in the nearshore. The basic physics of waves and currents are thought to...

Predicting the longshore-variable coastal response to hurricanes

Creator:

Stockdon, Hilary F.

Abstract:

The longshore variability of the coastal response to hurricanes may be examined within the framework of a storm-impact scaling model that compares spatially-variable beach morphology and fluid forcing. The relative elevations of dune height and storm-induced water levels are used to define three impact regimes (swash, collision, and overwash), within...
