A new approach for scaling beach profile evolution and sediment transport rates in distorted laboratory models
Paul Maxime Bayle, Tomas Beuzen, Christopher Edwin Blenkinsopp, Tom E. Baldock, Ian Lloyd Turner
Jan 31, 2021
Laboratory wave flume experiments in coastal engineering and physical oceanography are widely used to provide an improved understanding of morphodynamic processes. Wave flume facilities around the world vary greatly in their...

Investments in newer diagnostics and antimicrobial treatments are critical to improve management of enteric fever in South Asia, say Christopher Parry and colleagues
Breaking wave imaging using lidar and sonar
The two-phase flow generated by breaking ocean waves plays a crucial role in various geophysical processes, including dissipation of wave energy and atmospheric gas exchange. This paper presents a technique to measure the...
Behavioural modification of local hydrodynamics by asteroids enhances reproductive success
The reproduction of apex species, such as sea stars, is important for sustaining many marine ecosystems. Many sea star species reproduce externally, introducing gametes in the turbulent benthic boundary layer. Sea stars often...
Energy dissipation in the inner surf zone
The spatial and temporal variation of energy dissipation rates in breaking waves controls the mean circulation of the surf zone. As this circulation plays an important role in the morphodynamics of beaches, it is vital to...
Modes of berm and beachface recovery following storm reset
Matthew Phillips, Christopher Blenkinsopp, Kristen Splinter, Mitchell Harley, Ian Turner
Mar 01, 2019
Following the rapid and destructive impacts of storm erosion, beach recovery is a key natural process of restoration, returning eroded sediment to the subaerial beach and rebuilding coastal morphology. While the effects of storm...
The influence of swash-based reflection on surf zone hydrodynamics
A detailed understanding of the behaviour of waves in the nearshore is essential for coastal engineers as these waves cause beach erosion, coastal flooding and damage to coastal structures. Significantly, the influence of...

A 3D parallel Particle-In-Cell solver for extreme wave interaction with floating bodies
Floating structures are widely used for vessels, offshore platforms, and recently considered for deep water floating offshore wind system and wave energy devices. However, modelling complex wave interactions with floating...
Bore collapse and wave run-up on a sandy beach
Wave run-up on beaches and coastal structures is initiated and driven by collapsing incident bores, this process is often considered to define the seaward limit of the swash zone. It is hence a key feature in nearshore wave...

Wave runup video detection using the Radon Transform
Rafael Almar, Christopher Blenkinsopp, Luis Pedro Almeida, Rodrigo Cienfuegos, P Catalan
Dec 01, 2017
A new method of runup detection from video imagery is introduced and validated at an energetic dissipative beach. The instantaneous waterline is detected from uprush and backwash by using the Radon Transform (RT). The method is...
