Impacts of wave and tidal forcing on 3D nearshore processes on natural beaches. Part II. Sediment transport

This is the second of two papers on the 3D numerical modeling of nearshore hydro- and morphodynamics. In Part I, the focus was on surf and swash zone hydrodynamics in the cross-shore and longshore directions. Here, we consider nearshore processes with an e ...

Feeding behaviour of a benthic species (Ammonia tepida) under oxic and anoxic conditions: TEM-NanoSIMS correlation

Anders Meibom, Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre, Emmanuelle Geslin

More and more marine areas are subjected to depleted-O2 concentration, mainly due to eutrophication induced by human activities. These phenomena affect benthic ecosystems, in particular continental shelves and coastal areas where the renewal of the bottom ...

Ecomorphodynamic approaches to river anabranching patterns

Paolo Perona, Benoît Crouzy

We investigate the influence of vegetation on river morphological instabilities using an analytical framework. We first discuss the important role of the hydrological (flooding frequency) and biological (vegetation development rate) timescales. As long as ...

Stable isotope (S, C) chemostratigraphy and hydrocarbon biomarkers in the Ediacaran upper section of Sierras Bayas Group, Argentina

Mariluz Bagnoud

The Neoproterozoic sedimentary successions of the Sierras Bayas Group (SBG) are situated within the Tandilia Belt, Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. The Loma Negra Formation (LNF) from the upper part of the SBG has been investigated using a combination of ...

Empirical and analytical analyses of laboratory granular flows to investigate rock avalanche propagation

Vincent Labiouse, Irene Manzella

Laboratory experiments which consist of releasing dry rigid non-cohesive grains or small bricks on an unconfined chute have been designed to investigate rock avalanche propagation mechanisms and to identify parameters influencing their deposit characterist ...

Flooding of the continental shelves as a contributor to deglacial CH4 rise

Jed Oliver Kaplan

The transition from the last glacial and beginning of BollingAllerod and Pre-Boreal periods in particular is marked by rapid increases in atmospheric methane (CH4) concentrations. The CH4 concentrations reached during these intervals, similar to 650750 ppb ...

Influence of beach grain size and bed slope on nearshore hydro- and morpho-dynamics

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

Two major parameters that determine the beach type are sediment grain size and beach slope. Intermediate beaches normally have steep slopes and are associated with coarse-grained sands and narrow surf zones, while dissipative beaches generally have mild sl ...

3D modelling of nearshore coastal morphodynamics

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

Coastal 3D nearshore processes were considered with an emphasis on the effects of oceanic forcing and beach characteristics on sediment transport in both cross- and alongshore directions, as well as on foreshore bathymetry changes. In our numerical experim ...

Numerical experiments on breaking waves on contrasting beaches using a two-phase flow approach

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

A mechanistic understanding of beach environments needs to account for interactions of oceanic forcing and beach materials, in particular the role of waves on the evolution of the beach profile. A fully coupled two-phase flow model was used to simulate nea ...

Characterization of bedload transport in steep-slope streams.

Christophe Ancey, Joris Heyman, François Mettra

Large fluctuations in the sediment transport rate are observed in rivers, particularly in mountain streams at intermediate flow rates. These fluctuations seem to be, to some degree, correlated to the formation and migration of bedforms. Today the central q ...
