  • The Vlierzele sands (Eocene, Belgium) : a tidal ridge system in Tide-influenced sedimentary environments and facies.

  • attack in terms of tide levels and wave conditions. A beach consisting of cobbles and boulders formed at the toe of the debris, offering partial protection and reducing the rate of continued erosion.
  • The strategic role of perigean spring tides in nautical history and North American coastal flooding, 1635-1976.
  • Presents new results achieved after analysis of the Venice tide gauge record (San Stefano, Punta della Salute). A continuous series of tide values is presented in tables for the past one hundred and ten years making it possible to distinguish
  • Relation between superficial sediment grainsize and morphological features of the coastal ridges off the Belgian coast in Tide-influenced sedimentary environments and facies.
  • Bypassing of sand over sand waves and through a sand wave field in the central region of the Southern North Sea in Tide-influenced sedimentary environments and facies.
  • Morphological development of the Sandettie - South Falls Gap : a degeneration ebb dominated tidal passage in the Southern North Sea in Tide-influenced sedimentary environments and facies.
  • The tides of the planet Earth.
  • Coastal dynamics ; Coastal environment ; Intertidal zone ; Norway ; Norwegian Sea ; Numerical model ; Sea floor ; Sea level ; Tide ; Topography
  • A numerical model with grid resolution 500 m has been used to simulate tides on this section of the shelf off the coast in western Norway. The fine spatial resolution resolves important fine scale features of the bottom topography on the shelf
  • Stemming the tide : revitalizing the Central Business District of Cape Town
  • Earth tides, volcanoes and climatic change
  • This report will concentrate on aspects of Quaternary sea-level change, summaries of trends in sea-level over recent decades from tide gauges, and predictions of future sea-level change and the anticipated responses of the coast.

  • Algarve ; Beach ; Coastal dynamics ; Coastal environment ; Portugal ; Research technique ; Sediment transport ; Tidal current ; Tide ; Tracer
  • This study investigates sediment transport at a very low-energy backbarrier beach in southern Portugal, from a spring-to-neap tide period, during fair-weather conditions. Rates and directions of transport were determined based on the application
  • evolution model, well validated over the study area. Tidal currents (mainly ebb velocities) were found to be the main causative forcing controlling sediment displacements. Transport rates were higher during spring tides, tending towards very small values
  • at neap tides. Results herein reported points towards the distinction between tracer advection and tracer dispersion in this type of environment. Tracer techniques allowed distinguishing the broad picture of transport, but revealed the need for refinement
  • Migration and internal architecture of marine dunes in the eastern English Channel over 14 and 56 year intervals : the influence of tides and decennial storms

  • and seismic data over the periods 1937–1993 and 1993–2007. The dune internal architecture is complex with superimposed eastward prograding units, displaying locally opposite progradation. The role of tide and storms on dune dynamics are discussed as well
  • Available information from tide-gauges.
  • Continental crust ; Geophysics ; Global tectonics ; Gravimetry ; Seismic method ; Tide
  • . Eolian transport is greatest during low tide and rising tide, when the beach source area is widest and when drying of surface sediments occurs. The ability of the beach surface to supply grains to the air stream is limited on narrow beaches, but increased
  • Tidal transverse bars building up a longitudinal sand body (Middle Eocene, Belgium) in Tide-influenced sedimentary environments and facies.

  • 1, dominantly longshore systems essentially limited to the wide intertidal zone; smaller and ephemeral type 2, dominantly cross-shore systems incising bars during spring tides. Channel mobility and impact on beach morphology are expected to increase
