EC14C:
Nearshore Processes IV Posters


Session ID#: 11322

Session Description:
The nearshore region is a dynamic environment shaped by interacting processes encompassing different spatio-temporal scales and the complex feedbacks between wind, waves, currents, and morphology. The susceptibility of this region to sea level rise and climate change constitutes a major concern for society. We invite abstracts that focus on the physical processes occurring in the nearshore region from the beach face to the shelf break.  Topics of particular interest include: 1) surface and internal waves 2) riverine, tidal, wind and wave driven currents, 3) mixing and turbulence, 4) non-cohesive/cohesive sediment transport, 5) morphodynamics, 6) beaches, barriers, tidal inlets and river mouths. We welcome a range of presentations covering field observations (both remote sensing and in-situ), numerical and laboratory modeling, theoretical analysis, and model-data assimilation. The nearshore processes session is a well-established and well-attended session in which student participation is strongly encouraged.
