  • 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...

  • 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...
