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 influence of entrance constriction on hydrodynamics and intertidal morphology within estuarine basins
(2017)We investigate the influence of basin entrance constriction on current velocities, tidal asymmetry, bed shear stresses and intertidal morphology by using a numerical model developed in Delft3D. Hypsometric curves created ... -
Onshore sandbar migration at Tairua Beach (New Zealand): Numerical simulations and field measurements
(Elsevier, 2008)We observed the onshore migration (3.5 m/day) of a nearshore sandbar at Tairua Beach, New Zealand during 4 days of low-energy wave conditions. The morphological observations, together with concurrent measurements of waves ...
