Groundwater dynamics in the coastal unconfined aquifer is one of the most important
physical factors in the coastal zone since it greatly influences the nearshore hydrodynamics …

The beach drainage can be included among the soft engineering methods aimed to
counteract the shoreline retreat related to the sediment redistribution along the beach …

Sandy beaches play a significant role in the Caribbean tourism industry, which markets an
attractive sea–sand–sun product, but are potentially threatened by climate-change-induced …

The Maldives are situated in the remote equatorial Indian Ocean, covering 900 km from

This paper presents a Coastal Vulnerability Assessment (CVA) of a microtidal beach located
on the Ionian Sea in Calabria region (southern Italy) in order to examine the influence of the …

Vortex drop shafts are special manholes designed to link sewer channels at different
elevations. Significant energy head dissipation occurs across these structures, mainly due to …

In arid, coastal cities, water demand is often met through large-scale desalination systems.
However, the energy required to run desalination plants remains a drawback. Further …

A new experimental campaign on a 2D movable-bed physical model, reproducing a typical
