Are flow-vegetation interactions well represented by mimics? A case study of mangrove pneumatophores
(Elsevier, 2018)Arrays of real mangrove pneumatophores (i.e. aboveground pencil roots) and artificial dowel mimics were constructed in a laboratory flume to examine differences in canopy flow dynamics. Compared to the uniform-height dowel ... -
Beach response to a sequence of extreme storms
(Elsevier, 2013)A sequence of daily beach surveys acquired over one month covering an area larger than 100,000 m2, was analyzed to study morphological changes resulting from a cluster of storms. The beach response was highly variable in ... -
Blind testing of shoreline evolution models.
(2020)Beaches around the world continuously adjust to daily and seasonal changes in wave and tide conditions, which are themselves changing over longer time-scales. Different approaches to predict multi-year shoreline evolution ... -
Buried Alive or Washed Away The Challenging Life of Mangroves in the Mekong Delta
(The Oceanography Society, 2017)Mangroves colonize tropical shorelines, protecting coastal communities and providing valuable ecosystem services. Mangroves associated with deltas cope with a very dynamic environment characterized by strong gradients in ... -
A commentary on coastal research in New Zealand universities
(Wiley, 2008)University research in coastal geomorphology, processes and management has made a major contribution to the fundamental understanding of coastal systems in New Zealand over the past 43 years. This article examines the ...

Effect of exposure on the erodibility of intertidal mudflats
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Sediments on intertidal flats are exposed during low tides. Under the effect of exposure, the water content of sediments decreases because of the evaporation process, which alters the erosive behaviour of cohesive sediments, ... -
Investigating groundwater derived nutrient fluxes within Tauranga harbour, New Zealand
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) is one of the key pathways that connects land and ocean, delivering freshwater, nutrients, carbon, metals, and other chemical constituents to coastal waters. In New Zealand, local Māori ... -
Modelling of low- and high-frequency sea level variability and their drivers around the southern African coast
(The University of Waikato, 2020)Recent surveys indicate that marine operational forecasting is becoming increasingly important due the pressure to manage impacts associated with our changing climate. The methods with which forecasts are being produced ... -
The ecological implications of reconstructed historic hydrodynamic conditions in Tauranga Harbour (1852-2006).
(The University of Waikato, 2021)In order to manage, restore and mitigate the increasing anthropogenic impacts on estuarine systems in the future, it is useful to understand the magnitude and distribution of historic changes in environmental conditions ... -
The change in the horizontal position of the dune toe and vegetation line on beaches within the Waikato Region
(The University of Waikato, 2020)Beaches are highly variable landscapes that are constantly changing in response to a range of climatic variables. For example, local wind can cause the movement of sand across the beach and accretion, whilst storms that ...
