Aspects of long-term mathematical modelling of coastal morphology are inventoried and
discussed. They concern reduction techniques for input data, process descriptions and output …

It is demonstrated, by using a simple model, that bedforms in a short tidal embayment can
develop due to a positive feedback between tidal currents, sediment transport and bedforms. …

An analytical and a numerical model are used to understand the response of velocity and
sediment distributions over Gaussian-shaped estuarine cross-sections to changes in tidal …

The dynamics of finite-amplitude bed forms in a tidal channel is studied with the use of an
idealized morphodynamic model. The latter is based on depth-averaged equations for the tidal …

Tidal sand ridges are large-scale rhythmic bedforms that are observed on the offshore parts
of shelf seas where sand is abundantly available. Spacings between successive ridges are …

A model was developed and analyzed to quantify the effect of graded sediment on the formation
of tidal sand ridges. Field data reveal coarse (fine) sediment at the crests (in the troughs)…

An estuarine turbidity maximum (ETM) results from various subtidal sediment transport
mechanisms related to, eg, river, tides, and density gradients, which have been extensively …

Tidal sand ridges are large-scale bedforms that occur in the offshore area of shelf seas. They
evolve on a time scale of centuries due to tide-topography interactions while being further …

This study aims at gaining basic understanding about two specific phenomena that are
observed in the highly turbid estuaries tidal Ouse, Yangtze and Ems, ie (1) the accumulation of …

Bathymetric field data of tidal basins reveal two main classes of bottom patterns: (1) tidal bars,
located near the entrance of the basin (length scale determined by the embayment width) …
