Infragravity (hereafter IG) waves are surface ocean waves with frequencies below those of
wind-generated “short waves”(typically below 0.04 Hz). Here we focus on the most common …

Coastal areas epitomize the notion of 'at-risk'territory in the context of climate change and
sea level rise (SLR). Knowledge of the water level changes at the coast resulting from the …

Abstract Small Island Developing States (SIDS) have long been recognized as some of the
planet's most vulnerable areas to climate change, notably to rising sea levels and coastal …

Waves are an important agent in the construction, shaping and destruction of river deltas.
Notwithstanding the commonality of waves in oceans and seas, wave influence on deltas …

In the long term development of the research on wind waves and their modelling, in
particular of the inner and coastal seas, the present situation is framed with a short look at …

Estuarine Ecohydrology, Second Edition, provides an ecohydrology viewpoint of an estuary
as an ecosystem by focusing on its principal components, the river, the estuarine waters, the …

Surface gravity waves generated by winds are ubiquitous on our oceans and play a
primordial role in the dynamics of the ocean–land–atmosphere interfaces. In particular, wind …

There is a growing interest for marine flooding related to recent catastrophic events and their
unintended consequences in terms of casualties and damages, and to the increasing …

This study investigates the contributions of short waves in storm surges through the hindcast
of two storms that hit the central part of the Bay of Biscay recently. Despite displaying …

Abstract In the northeastern United States, flooding arising from wave overtopping poses a
constant threat to coastal communities during storm events. The purpose of this study is to …
