Scaling laws for coastal overwash morphology
Overwash is a physical process of coastal sediment transport driven by storm events and is essential to landscape resilience in low-lying barrier environments. This work establishes a comprehensive set of scaling laws for overwash morphology: unifying quantitative descriptions with which to compare overwash features by their morphological attributes across case examples. Such scaling laws also ...
متن کاملCoastal Overwash: Part 2, Upgrade to SBEACH
PURPOSE. This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) provides information about an improved capability to mathematically model overwash caused by elevated water elevation and wave runup. An upgrade to SBEACH (Storm-induced BEAch CHange Model, a numerical model for simulating storm-induced beach profile change) is described to simulate sediment transport and subaerial profile ...
متن کاملHigh-frequency Coastal Overwash Deposits from Phra Thong Island, Thailand
The 26th December 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami (IOT) emanated from an Mw 9.2 earthquake that generated a 1600 km-long rupture along the Sumatran Megathrust and generated tsunami waves up to 30 m high. The IOT directly impacted the Bay of Bengal and east Africa, with over 283,000 people perishing. At the time, this catastrophic event was considered unprecedented and sparked intense investigations t...
متن کاملCompacting Coastal Plain soils changes midrotation loblolly pine allometry by reducing root biomass
Factorial combinations of soil compaction and organic matter removal were replicated at the Long Term Site Productivity study in the Croatan National Forest, near New Bern, North Carolina, USA. Ten years after planting, 18 preselected loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) trees were destructively harvested to quantify treatment effects on total aboveand below-ground tree biomass and to detect any chan...
متن کاملDynamic Morphology and Embryology
First to give additional examples of dynamic morphology in order to familiarize the reader further with this way of working and perceiving, building upon the phenomenological approach as presented in an earlier chapter, where it was termed dynamic perception; Second to give the reader an experience of the kinds of insights which can be gained by looking for polarity in human and natural phenome...
