Identification of sea-level proxies is important for reconstruction of past sea-level variation. Methods for reconstructing Holocene relative sea-level curves are crucial for quantification of the impact of Greenland ice thickness variation on global sea level and vertical land movement. Arctic beach ridges constitute important potential archives of sea-level variation. However, their surface m...

Towards the end of the 20 century, a paradigm shift took place in many scientific labs. Scientists embarked on a new form of scientific inquiry seeking to understand the behavior of complex adaptive systems that increasingly defied traditional reductive analysis. By combining experimental methodology with computer-based simulation tools, scientists gain greater understanding of the behavior of ...

Both satellite and reanalysis model data have shown statistically significant changes in global wave height recent decades. It is often speculated that, if such continue the future, they may an impact on coastal erosion. A study to investigate whether observed had a measurable beach stability has, not however, previously been attempted. This presentation will bring together datasets of height, ...

Beach width is an important factor for tourists’ comfort, and the backshore a swash zone where sediment moves quickly. Artificial sandy beaches focus on beach stability evolution. This paper based artificial project in Haikou Bay, where, view of existing conditions, new type profile that can protect berm without being eroded by large wave action. Numerical simulation XBeach model were conducted...
