DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoleng.2020.105856
Abstract: Abstract Urban nearshore ecosystems are built environments that differ structurally and functionally from the natural ecosystems they replace. Eco-engineering offers the ability to enhance these ecosystems by reducing the impacts of shoreline modification. Recent studies… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jembe.2017.01.024
Abstract: Abstract Previous studies have shown that concrete tiles on seawalls that incorporate microhabitat size variability (i.e. complexity) can increase species richness compared to unmodified seawalls. In a recent study, we showed that manipulating complexity at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.soildyn.2020.106392
Abstract: Abstract In this study, a frequency-domain finite element model is proposed to evaluate the seismic response of water-structure-sediment-foundation-backfill coupling system. It includes the seawater as a compressible fluid, seawall as viscoelastic solid, backfilled soil, sediment,… read more here.
