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: 10.1007/s00024-019-02091-w
Abstract: Regional and global tsunami hazard analysis requires simplified and efficient methods for estimating the tsunami inundation height and its related uncertainty. One such approach is the amplification factor (AF) method. Amplification factors describe the relation… read more here.
