Geological constraints on mesoscale coastal barrier behaviour
Barrier/lagoon systems occupy a significant part of the world's coast. They are diverse in
size, morphology, geological and oceanographic setting, and morphodynamic behaviour …

Sediment transport on dissipative, intermediate and reflective beaches
In this paper, we review and synthesize field measurements of suspended sediment
transport on the shoreface of dissipative, intermediate and reflective beach states. The …

Vegetation controls on the maximum size of coastal dunes
Coastal dunes, in particular foredunes, support a resilient ecosystem and reduce coastal
vulnerability to storms. In contrast to dry desert dunes, coastal dunes arise from interactions …

Coastal erosion in NW Spain: Recent patterns under extreme storm wave events
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) …
