A Model for Simulating Barrier Island Geomorphologic Responses to Future Storm and Sea-Level Rise Impacts
Dai, H.; Ye, M., and Niedoroda, A. W., 0000. A model for simulating barrier island geomorphologic responses to future storm and sea-level rise impacts. Journal of Coastal Research, 00(0), 000–000. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. This paper presents the Barrier Island Profile (BIP) model, a new computer code developed to simulate barrier island morphological evolution over periods rangi...
متن کاملGreenhouse Effect, Sea Level Rise, and Barrier Islands Case Study of Long Beach Island, New Jersey
Increasing atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide and other gases are expected to cause a global warming that could raise sea level a few feet in the next century. This paper examines four options by which barrier-island communities could respond, focussing on Long Beach Island, New Jersey. For the next few decades, the most common response will probably be to raise the islands in place b...
متن کاملBarrier Island Morphology and Sediment Characteristics Affect the Recovery of Dune Building Grasses following Storm-Induced Overwash
Barrier islands are complex and dynamic systems that provide critical ecosystem services to coastal populations. Stability of these systems is threatened by rising sea level and the potential for coastal storms to increase in frequency and intensity. Recovery of dune-building grasses following storms is an important process that promotes topographic heterogeneity and long-term stability of barr...
متن کاملAnalysis of Sand Masses Morphogenetic in Makran Coastal Plain
The instability and mobility of sand dunes is a major concern of planning and management in arid coastal plains. The aim of this study is to identify morphogenetic characteristics of sand masses and their locations, as well as to identify the processes that formed and transported them in the western part of the Makran coastal plain. Research data and tools were including spatial distributions o...
متن کاملStudy of phytoplankton community in coastal waters of Hormozgan province, Qeshm and Leangeh Islands
The study of spatial and temporal variability of distribution of phytoplankton communities in Northern part of the Persian Gulf (Qeshm andLengeh Islands) was studied. In this study, five groups (47 genera) of phytoplankton include Bacillariophyceae, Dinophyceae, Cyanophyceae, Crysophyceae and Euglenophyceae were identified. The results showed that Diatoms group (79.6 %) and Rhizosolenia genus (...
