The aim of this project is to improve the understanding of intertidal beach evolution on time scales of days to years and spatial scales up to several kilometers. In particular, we focus on alongshore variability in beach evolution, studying its origin and its effect on dune erosion during extreme storms. read more

The objective of this project is to understand the short- to long-term behavior of bar and rip patterns on the beach. This is done by monthly surveying the beach morphology, describing and doing morphometric analysis of the intertidal bar morphology using the ARGUS video images of Noordwijk and Egmond aan Zee in the Netherlands. read more

The purpose of the Coast3D project is to improve understanding of the physics of coastal sand transport and morphodynamics, to remedy the present lack of validation data of sand transport and morphology suitable for testing numerical models of coastal processes, to test a representative sample of numerical models for predicting coastal sand transport and morphodynamics against this data, to deliver validated modelling tools, and methodologies for their use, in a form suitable for coastal zone management, to deliver a set of guidelines for practical coastal zone management. read more

Study of sediment and bedform dynamics under combined wave-current flow at an intertidal sandbar at the outer delta of the Teign Inlet using field measurements and a state-of-the-art process-based model. read more
