The spatial and temporal variability of sand bar morphology

TC Lippmann, RA Holman - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 1990 - Wiley Online Library
The spatial and temporal variability of nearshore sand bar morphology is quantified using a
unique data set spanning 2 years. The data consist of daily time exposure images of incident …

Practical use of video imagery in nearshore oceanographic field studies

KT Holland, RA Holman, TC Lippmann… - IEEE Journal of …, 1997 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
An approach was developed for using video imagery to quantify, in terms of both spatial and
temporal dimensions, a number of naturally occurring (nearshore) physical processes. The …

Extreme value statistics for wave run-up on a natural beach

RA Holman - Coastal Engineering, 1986 - Elsevier
Statistics of wave run-up maxima have been calculated for 149 35-minutes data runs from a
natural beach. During the experiment incident wave height varied from 0.4 to 4.0 m, incident …

The history and technical capabilities of Argus

RA Holman, J Stanley - Coastal engineering, 2007 - Elsevier
Over the past 25 years, optical remote sensing has been developed into a very useful tool
for sampling the nearshore environment, principally through the use of Argus Stations. …

Quantification of sand bar morphology: A video technique based on wave dissipation

TC Lippmann, RA Holman - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 1989 - Wiley Online Library
A technique is presented to remotely measure the scales and morphology of natural sand
bars based on the preferential dissipation of wind waves and swell over the crests of the bar. …

Estimation of shoreline position and change using airborne topographic lidar data

HF Stockdonf, AH Sallenger Jr, JH List… - Journal of Coastal …, 2002 - JSTOR
A method has been developed for estimating shoreline position from airborne scanning laser
data. This technique allows rapid estimation of objective, GPS-based shoreline positions …

Setup and swash on a natural beach

RA Holman, AH Sallenger Jr - Journal of Geophysical …, 1985 - Wiley Online Library
Wave setup and swash statistics were calculated from 154 runup time series measured on a
moderately steep beach under incident waves varying from 0.4 to 4.0 m significant wave …

Swash zone sediment suspension and transport and the importance of bore‐generated turbulence

JA Puleo, RA Beach, RA Holman… - Journal of Geophysical …, 2000 - Wiley Online Library
A study of swash zone sediment transport was conducted at Gleneden Beach, Oregon during
February 25–28, 1994. The data collected included suspended sediment concentration (…

A simple model for the spatially-variable coastal response to hurricanes

HF Stockdon, AH Sallenger Jr, RA Holman, PA Howd - Marine Geology, 2007 - Elsevier
The vulnerability of a beach to extreme coastal change during a hurricane can be estimated
by comparing the relative elevations of storm-induced water levels to those of the dune or …
