Shoreline location and incident wave energy, observed for almost 5 years at Torrey Pines beach, show seasonal fluctuations characteristic of southern California beaches. The shoreline location, defined as the cross‐shore position mean sea level contour, retreats by 40 m in response to energetic winter waves gradually recovers during low‐energy summer waves. Hourly estimates energy weekly monthly surveys are used develop calibrate an equilibrium‐type change model. By hypothesis, rate depends...
While global sea level has risen by 20 cm since the mid-19th century, role of this process in present-day and past shoreline mobility is still debated. In paper, we review previous studies that explored relations between sea-level rise changes over last few decades. Existing methods can be classified into two groups: (1) approaches based on analysis trends variability change observations, which investigate whether a correlation with temporal or spatial patterns established; (2) comparison...
[1] Four years of beach elevation surveys at Ocean Beach, San Francisco, California, are used to extend an existing equilibrium shoreline change model, previously calibrated with fine sand and moderate energy waves, medium higher-energy waves. The shoreline, characterized as the cross-shore location mean high water contour, varied seasonally by between 30 60 m, depending on alongshore location. model relates rate horizontal displacement hourly wave E disequilibrium, difference that would...
Abstract. Assessing coastal vulnerability to climate change at regional scales is now mandatory in France since the adoption of recent laws support adaptation change. However, there presently no commonly recognised method assess accurately how sea level rise will modify processes coming decades. Therefore, many assessments physical component are based on a combined use data (e.g. digital elevation models, historical shoreline and geomorphology datasets), simple models expert opinion. In this...

Abstract An equilibrium framework is used to describe the evolution of cross‐shore profile five beaches (medium grain size sand) in southern California. Elevations were observed quarterly on transects extending from back beach 8 m depth, for 3–10 years. Transects spaced 100 alongshore direction are averaged into nineteen 700–900 long sections. Consistent with previous observations, changes about time average many sections captured by first mode empirical orthogonal function (EOF). The EOF...
Summary The accuracy and efficiency of two methods resolving the exact potential flow problem for nonlinear waves are compared using three different one horizontal dimension (1DH) test cases. model approaches use high‐order finite difference schemes in differ resolution vertical dimension. first uses also vertical, while second applies a spectral approach. convergence, accuracy, models demonstrated as function temporal, horizontal, resolutions following: (1) propagation regular periodic...
Abstract. The coastal zone is a complex environment in which variety of forcing factors interact causing shoreline evolution. Coastal managers seek to predict evolution and identify regions vulnerable erosion. Here, Bayesian network developed the primary influencing decadal-scale European coasts reproduce observed trends. Sensitivity tests demonstrate robustness model, showing higher predictive capabilities for stable than eroding coasts. Finally, study highlights need update expand...
Coastlines are subject to multiple developments related land use planning and the effects of climate change. These generally lead an increase in risk coastal flooding. This article focuses on systems protect against this hazard, presents a bibliographical analysis methods operational tools strengthen their resilience. is carried out by considering that system protection component territory which it provides therefore necessary study depth relations between various components (the natural...

Abstract Understanding the interactions between dune systems and beaches is critical to determining short‐term shoreline response long‐term resilience. In this study, almost 15 years of monthly beach/dune measurements were analyzed for three different profiles at Vougot Beach, France understand predict changes from intra‐annual multi‐annual time‐scales. Four migration modes: advance/retreat (translation modes) steepening/flattening (rotation identified through a centroid analysis. The analysis...
