In the past decade, the numerical modelling of braided river morphodynamics has experienced a significant advance due to the increasing computer power and the development of numerical techniques. Numerical models are quite efficient in exploring scenario...

Sandspits are important natural defences against the effects of storm events in estuarine regions, and their temporal and spatial dynamics are related to river flow, wave energy, and wind action. Understanding the impact of extreme wave events on the mor...

Sediment hyperpycnal flow is one of the most important processes for mass transport, which is essential to coastal morphodynamics. Herein, we studied the generation and maintenance of the sediment hyperpycnal flow in the Yellow River Estuary (YRE) using ...

Flash floods can cause great geomorphological changes in ephemeral fluvial systems and result in particularly severe damages for the unprepared population exposed to it. The flash flood in the Storelva river in Utvik (western Norway) on 24 July 2017 was ...

The Authie estuary is characterized by an important southern sand spit and a northern shoreline subject to strong erosion due to the meandering of the coastal river. In order to reduce this erosion, a new soft coastal defence, namely the sand net device ...

Two-dimensional models of large spatial domain including Cua Lo and Cua Hoi estuaries in Nghe An province, Vietnam, were established, calibrated, and verified with the observed data of tidal level, wave height, wave period, wave direction, and suspended ...

The understanding and anticipating of climate change impacts is one of the greatest challenges for humanity. It is already known that, until the end of the 21st century, the mean sea level (MSL) will rise at a global scale, but its effects at the local s...

This paper explores the historical inundation of the city of Dera Ghazi Kkan (Punjab, Pakistan) in 1909. The rich documentation about this episode available?including historic news reports, books and maps?is used to reconstruct the historical dynamics be...

A simple methodology to track the displacements of a sandbar from a fixed video camera, extracting its morphological features and deriving the associated fluvial morphology is presented, using a small reach of the Po River in Italy as a case study. A cam...

Morphodynamic models of river meandering patterns and dynamics are based on the premise that the integration of biophysical processes matching those operating in natural rivers should result in a better fit with observations. Only a few morphodynamic mod...
