Sediment storage at tidal inlets in northern Adriatic lagoons: Ebb-tidal delta morphodynamics, conservation and sand use strategies

TL;DR: In this paper, a semi-automatic geostatistical GIS procedure was developed to process bathymetrical data and a first estimate of ebb-delta volumes, was obtained.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tidal inlet seafloor changes induced by recently built hard structures.

TL;DR: The rapid evolution of a highly human-impacted tidal inlet, studied through repeated high-resolution multibeam surveys and repeatable geomorphometric analysis is described, documenting the rapid change induced by new hard coastal structures built to protect the historical city of Venice.
Dissertation

Coastal sedimentary traps as potential borrow sources for nourishment of neighbouring erosional beaches.

TL;DR: In this article, a semi-automatic geostatistical GIS procedure was developed to process bathymetrical data and a first estimate of ebb-delta volumes, was obtained.

Equilibrium Beach Profile Scale-Model Relationship

TL;DR: In this article, a model law for two-dimensional, laboratory beach profiles assumed to be at equilibrium is considered and an experimental program has been performed and the extensive laboratory beach profile data indicate a relationship or model law between the four basic scale ratios; the horizontal scale, vertical scale, sediment size ratio, and the relative specific weight ratio.
