An analysis of the interactions between wave-induced velocities and seagrass meadows has been conducted based on the large-scale CIEM wave flume data. Incident irregular wave trains act on an initial 1:15 sand beach profile with measurement stations from...

In this study, the bedform dimensions of an alluvial bed in a unidirectional flow were experimentally investigated. A series of flume experiments was conducted; 700 sets of flume and field data were used in developing formulae for predicting the bedform ...

Predicting morphological adjustments in alluvial meandering streams remains a challenging task due to the complex nature of the governing inter-related dynamic flow and sediment transport processes. This difficulty is increased in streams with irregular ...

In this paper, the physiography, geomorphological features, and sedimentary bedforms of the offshore Egadi Islands (Italy) have been illustrated and mapped through an integrated analysis of high-resolution bathymetric, seismo-acoustic, and sedimentologic...

The dense and deep water flow that leaves the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic flows through the upper and middle slope of the Gulf of Cádiz as a powerful bottom stream that models and interacts with bathymetry. The detailed analysis of underwater image...

Observations from wave basin experiments and wave-resolving numerical simulations demonstrate the effect of wave-current interaction on shear stress around a sandy mound. Observations from the wave basin show that the mound deformation rate and morpholog...

Ripple formation and evolution as well as vortex separation along the bedform profile strongly influence surface waves and sediment transport. These features were investigated in a U-Tube at the Hydraulics Laboratory of the University of Messina. During ...

The flux of water through the hyporheic zone (HZ) is controlled by stream bedforms, sinuosity, surface water velocity, local water table, seasonality, and hydraulic conductivity (K) of the bed material. Dependent on both the kinematic viscosity and densi...

Determination of skin friction factor has been a controversial topic, particularly in gravel-bed rivers where total flow resistance is influenced by the existence of small-scale skin roughness and large-scale topographic forms. The accuracy of existing m...

The behavior of asymmetrical bedforms, which include many tidal sand waves, is challenging to understand. They are of particular interest since they are mostly located within areas prone to offshore engineering activities. Most experimental investigation...
