Infragravity (hereafter IG) waves are surface ocean waves with frequencies below those of
wind-generated “short waves”(typically below 0.04 Hz). Here we focus on the most common …

Morphodynamic equilibrium is a widely adopted yet elusive concept in the field of
geomorphology of coasts, rivers and estuaries. Based on the Exner equation, an expression …

The present knowledge of Holocene continental shelf deposits in relation to the processes
for their formation, from the prospective of marine sediment dynamics, is examined. Over the …

Wave‐current interactions play a major role in the dynamics of shallow tidal inlets. This study
investigates these interactions at a natural inlet, with a strong focus on current‐induced …

Alluvial river estuaries consist largely of sand but are typically flanked by mudflats and salt
marshes. The analogy with meandering rivers that are kept narrower than braided rivers by …

Coastal zones in the vicinity of tidal inlets are commonly utilised for navigation, fishing, sand
mining, waterfront development and recreation and are under very high population …

Abstract The long‐term (3000 years) morphodynamics of an idealized muddy backbarrier
tidal basins is studied using a shallow‐water hydrodynamics and wind‐wave model (Deltf3D …

Tidal inlets on barrier coasts can migrate alongshore hundreds of meters per year, often
presenting great management and engineering challenges. Here we perform model …

We investigate the initiation and long‐term evolution of tidal networks by comparing
controlled laboratory experiments and their associated scaling laws with outputs from a …

The silting of tidal channels is a natural process that affects several shallow lagoons and
makes it difficult to navigate, requiring regular maintenance interventions. This phenomenon …
