Seawater intrusion (SI) is a global issue, exacerbated by increasing demands for freshwater
in coastal zones and predisposed to the influences of rising sea levels and changing …

The dominant hydrodynamic forcing and resulting sediment transport mechanisms in the
swash zone are reviewed, combined with a discussion of future measurement and …

Groundwater flow and chemical transport in subterranean estuaries are poorly understood
despite their potentially important implications for chemical fluxes from aquifers to coastal …

A variable-density groundwater model is used to analyse the effects of tidal fluctuations on
sea-water intrusion in an unconfined aquifer. It is shown that the tidal activity forces the sea …

Studies of seawater intrusion in unconfined coastal aquifers typically neglect oceanic
oscillations such as tides and assume a static seaward boundary condition defined by the …

The tidal influence on groundwater hydrodynamics, salt-water intrusion and submarine
groundwater discharge from coastal/estuarine aquifers is poorly quantified for systems with …

An understanding of the interaction between surface and groundwater flows in the swash
zone is necessary to understand beach profile evolution. Coastal researchers have …

Submarine groundwater discharge (SGWD) and associated nutrient fluxes at Hasaki Beach
along the Kashima coast in Japan were investigated through field measurements and …

To incorporate groundwater infiltration/exfiltration in the description of swash zone sediment
transport, it is required that the details of groundwater dynamics within the beach face be …

This paper reviews research on beach groundwater dynamics and identifies research
questions which will need to be answered before swash zone sediment transport and beach …
