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/s13369-020-05230-x
Abstract: Scour behavior around a monopile foundation of offshore wind turbines (OWTs) should take into account the effect of combined waves and currents. To obtain an accurate equilibrium scour depth, a calculation model was proposed herein… read more here.

Abstract: We study dispersion properties of linear surface gravity waves propagating in an arbitrary direction atop a current profile of depth-varying magnitude using a piecewise linear approximation and develop a robust numerical framework for practical calculation.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tgrs.2016.2621161
Abstract: A new algorithm using array beamforming for estimating waves and currents from marine X-band radar image sequences is proposed. Array beamforming is used to extract the wave directional spectrum from the image sequences; the image… read more here.

DOI: 10.1175/jpo-d-20-0290.1
Abstract: The Lofoten Maelstrom has been known for centuries as one of the strongest open-ocean tidal currents in the world, estimated to reach 3 m s−1, and by some estimates as much as 5 m s−1.… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/os-13-673-2017
Abstract: Abstract. Coastal defence structures are often constructed to prevent beach erosion. However, poorly designed structures may cause serious erosion problems in the downdrift direction. Morphological models are useful tools to predict such impacts and assess… read more here.
