Hypsometric and geometric controls on hydrodynamics, tidal asymmetry, and sediment connectivity in shallow estuarine systems.
(The University of Waikato, 2022)Estuaries and tidal basins are highly dynamic coastal systems that serve as a transition zone between the river and the ocean. The morphological evolution of these diverse environments is modulated by non-linear feedbacks ... -
The role of the deposit feeding bivalve Macomona liliana in a simple biophysical model for predicting estuarine ecosystem tipping points
(The University of Waikato, 2022)Estuaries are highly productive, coastal marine environments that provide vital ecosystem functions supporting human health. Throughout history, many major settlements have been established adjacent to estuaries, so to ... -
Remote coastal monitoring of beach usage on Tairua Beach
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Research that gathers data from public reporting is susceptible to population bias, which arises from a lack of knowledge on the probability of a person’s ability to witness an event. Data collection based on public reporting ... -
Attenuation of tides and storm surges in coastal mangroves
(The University of Waikato, 2021)Mangrove forests have been shown to provide coastal protection by reducing waves, moderating currents, stabilizing sediments, and lessening storm winds. However, the interaction between storm surge and mangroves is less ... -
Understanding the potential exposure of coastal marae and urupā in Aotearoa New Zealand to sea level rise
(The University of Waikato, 2021)In Aotearoa New Zealand, Māori are Indigenous and have inhabited these islands for the past 700 years. They have an intricate physical and spiritual connection to places and the environment. This is reflected in the Māori ...
