TL;DR: The Sand Engine nourishment is a pilot project to test the efficacy of local mega-nourishments as a counter measure for the anticipated enhanced coastal recession in the 21st century as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The Sand Engine peninsula, a highly concentrated nourishment of 17 million m3 of sand in the shape of a sandy hook and protruding 1 km from shore, was measured intensively on a monthly scale in the first 18 months after completion as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a multidisciplinary overview of beach nourishment, discussing physical aspects of nourishment alongside ecological and socio-economic impacts, and recommend co-located, multidisdisciplinary research studies on the combined impacts of nourishments, and explorations of various designs to guide these globally diverse nourishment practices.

TL;DR: In this paper, a multiple-signal, short MS-SAR approach was proposed to measure six different luminescence signals from a single polymineral aliquot, which can be used to construct bleaching plateaus which provide an independent and time-effective measure of the degree of poor bleaching in a sediment sample.

TL;DR: In this paper, an efficient modeling approach is presented using a lookup table filled with computed initial erosion-sedimentation rates for a range of potential environmental conditions at a single post-construction bathymetry.
