Sediment supply and Morphological evolution of a small river mouth (Fiumi Uniti, Ravenna, Italy): should river management be Storm-Driven?

Description: The current paper links direct measurements of river bedload during floods, estimates of annual sediment input and monitoring of beaches at a small river mouth, the Fiumi Uniti just south of Ravenna.

Modelling storm impacts on beaches, dunes and barrier islands

Description: A new nearshore numerical model approach to assess the natural coastal response during time-varying storm and hurricane conditions, including dune erosion, overwash and breaching, is validated with a series of analytical, laboratory and field test cases.

Coastal morphological monitoring using an automated video system at Praia de Faro (South Portugal)

Description: An automated video system is presented for coastal morphological monitoring consisting of 2 IP cameras and a PC, acquiring imagery from the coastal zone during 10 min every hour during daylight, with an acquisition frequency of 1 Hz.

DETERMINATION OF THRESHOLDS FOR STORM IMPACTS

Description: Storms are responsible for important erosion, coastal retreat and damage when infrastructures are placed within their acting area. The characterisation of storm parameters and associated thresholds for erosion and damage are therefore of fundamental importance for coastal management purposes.

Correlating Wave Hindcast and Buoy data with Artificial Neural Networks

Description: This work presents results from the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) to improve wave models hindcasting capacity off the South coast of Portugal. Comparison of the original model results with field measurements showed significant non linear deviations.

Thresholds for morphological changes on an exposed sandy beach as a function of wave height

Description: A sandy beach in the south of Portugal (Faro beach, Ria Formosa) was surveyed from the dune crest seaward to 15 m depth 20 times over a period of 26 months.Wave time-series between surveys were analysed to obtain relationships between wave height and vertical profile variations and to define wave thresholds for important morphological changes. Results show that the active zone of the profile lies between 5 m above and 10·4 m below mean sea level...
