Journal ArticleDOI
A profile zonation for seasonal sand beaches from wave climate
TL;DR: In this paper, the seafloor profile of a seasonal sand beach is divided into three submarine zones parallel to the shoreline, and the shoal zone boundaries are defined based on critical values of two Froude numbers giving distinct thresholds in sand mobilization by waves.

Swash infiltration-exfiltration and sediment transport
Ian L. Turner,Gerhard Masselink +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used field measurements of vertical pore-pressure gradients within the bed to quantify instantaneous (8 Hz) rates of swash infiltration-exfiltration across the beach face.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wave-induced advective transport below a rippled water-sediment interface
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined quantitatively the effects of modulations in the profile of the water-sediment interface on this exchange and on the advective transport inside the sediment bed.
Ventilated oscillatory boundary layers
Daniel Conley,Douglas L. Inman +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured the boundary-layer velocities, bed stress and turbulent flow properties of the ventilated oscillatory boundary layer, arising from flows which oscillate parallel to a permeable bed, and are subject to oscillating percolation of the same frequency as the bed parallel flow.
