Intertidal ecosystems are threatened by sea level rise and anthropogenic pressures.
Understanding the processes controlling the morphodynamic developments of tidal flats is …

Worldwide, many tidal basins associated with barrier coasts have infilled over the past
millennia due to the combination of sediment supply, wave‐tidal sediment transport, and eco …

A large-scale field campaign was carried out on the ebb-tidal delta (ETD) of Ameland Inlet, a
basin of the Wadden Sea in the Netherlands, as well as on three transects along the Dutch …

For successful and sustainable management of barrier islands, a thorough understanding of
the ebb-tidal delta dynamics and interactions with the adjacent shorelines are of the utmost …

Connectivity provides a framework for analyzing coastal sediment transport pathways,
building on conceptual advances in graph theory from other scientific disciplines …

Multiple tidal inlet systems like the Wadden Sea have long been considered as separated
basins, bordered by so-called tidal divides. Recently, it was however shown that fluxes of …

Coastal areas adjacent to tidal inlets are highly valuable areas for marine ecosystems where
a wide range of social and economic activities can be found. These areas can be …

Abstract The 14.5-km North-Médoc coast, southwest France, is a high-energy meso-to
macro-tidal environment adjacent to the largest estuary in Europe. Over the last centuries …

Sediment tracer studies use uniquely identifiable particles to track the pathways and fate of
individual sand or silt grains in marine environments. These techniques are best applied to …
