This paper reviews the initiation, dynamics, geomorphology and evolution of incipient
foredunes, established foredunes, and blowouts. Incipient foredunes may be initiated in a …

This paper offers a synthesis of the disparate evidence on the importance of the magnitude
and duration of water level rise in both lacustrine and marine environments in relation to …

Coastal Geomorphology, Second Edition is a comprehensive and systematic introduction to
this subject and demonstrates the dynamic nature of coastal landforms, providing a …

Coastal zones are becoming increasingly topical (and politically sensitive) as they face
relentless pressures from urban expansion, recreational development, and sea level rise …

As coastal populations burgeon, problems of erosion, pollution and coastal change are
becoming ever more serious and necessitate scientifically informed management strategies …

Beaches and coastal dunes are dynamic geomorphic systems that respond to process
forcing over a broad spectrum of spatial and temporal scales. At all scales, there are …

Coastal dunes are sensitive to both anthropic and natural processes of erosion. In this study,
we analyse the geomorphic changes in 15 dune-fringed coastlines of Asturias (NW Spain) …

Complex nonlinear dynamic systems are ubiquitous in the landscapes and phenomena
studied by earth sciences in general and by geomorphology in particular. Concepts of …

The aeolian development of coastal foredunes is studied at two sites along the Dutch coast.
Amounts of sand transport are measured in cross-sections over the foredunes, and changes …

Wave-dominated and mixed-energy barriers are extremely dynamic landforms, responding
to processes operating over a spectrum of time scales, ranging from daily-to-monthly …
