Morphological evolution of a barchan dune migrating past an offshore wind farm foundation

TL;DR: In this article, a 5.8-m diameter monopile foundation was installed at the case study offshore windfarm approximately 30m ahead of an approaching barchan (crescent-shaped) dune.

Ecosystem-based design rules for marine sand extraction sites

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated short-term effects (0-2.5 y) of deep sand extraction (20-24 m) and compared these with other case studies such as, regular shallow sand extraction on the Dutch Continental Shelf (DCS) and an 8 m deepened shipping lane.

A comprehensive study of the tides around the Welsh coastal waters

TL;DR: In this paper, a computational model has been used to explore characteristics of the barotropic tide around the Welsh coast in detail for the first time, and it is shown that tidal distortion is significant in the Bristol Channel (S. Wales) and in the large shallow estuaries of the N. Wales coast; for much of the west coast this is only significant in localized areas around headlands and islands.

Formulation of the undertow using linear wave theory

TL;DR: In this paper, a solution to the undertow in the surf zone is derived, assuming linear wave theory and keeping most terms in the wave momentum equations, and it is shown that it is unique.
