DOI: 10.1002/2016jc012545
Abstract: Overwash and inundation on barrier islands can transport sediment onshore, leading to vertical accretion. These processes could ensure barrier island growth in times of sea-level rise, but wave and current fields during overwash and inundation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.catena.2020.104755
Abstract: Abstract Applying the ecological resilience principles to barrier island geomorphological evolution requires approaches that perceive and interpret resilience far from predefined barrier characteristics and static views. Accepting that barrier islands, like all natural systems, are… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.margeo.2018.04.007
Abstract: Abstract Barrier islands and their associated backbarrier ecosystems front much of the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf coasts, yet threshold conditions associated with their relative stability (i.e., state changes between progradation, erosion, and landward migration) in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/biosci/biw154
Abstract: Barrier islands are heavily influenced by external drivers such as sea-level rise, storm-related disturbances, and other complex factors that affect net sediment exchange. Numerous ecological processes (e.g., dispersal, competition, and facilitation) interact with these drivers… read more here.

Modern to Ancient Barrier Island Dimensional Comparisons: Implications for Analog Selection and Paleomorphodynamics
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Frontiers in Earth Science"
DOI: 10.3389/feart.2019.00109
Abstract: Ancient barrier islands are poorly understood relative to other clastic depositional environments, despite being prominent features along modern coastlines and important for understanding transgressive shoreline deposits. A new dataset of ancient barrier island dimensions (n=83… read more here.
