Automated algorithms to extract the instantaneous water line from video imagery struggle under dissipative conditions, where the presence of a seepage face and the lack of contrast between the sand and the swash impede proper extraction, requiring time-intensive data quality control or manual digitization. This study introduces two novel methods, based on color contrast (CC) and machine learning (ML). The CC method combines texture roughness — local entropy — with saturation. Images are first binarized using entropy values and then refined through noise reduction by binarization of the saturation channel. The ML method uses a convolutional neural network (CNN) informed by five channels: the grayscale intensity and its time gradient, the saturation channel, and the entropy and its time gradient. Both methods were validated against nine manually labeled, 80 min video time series.

Three-component, three-dimensional (3C3D) velocity measurements were conducted from the free surface to the bottom in the inner surf zone using a Volumetric Three-Component Velocimetry (V3V) system. The 3C3D measurements were supplemented by high resolution two-dimensional (2D) velocity measurements inside the bottom boundary layer obtained using a Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) system. The bed shear stress was determined from the measured velocities in the viscous sublayer using the velocity gradient method. The measured data were used to study the evolution of the large eddies and the characteristics of their induced bed shear stresses. The results showed that, in both spilling and plunging waves, the basic three-dimensional (3D) structure of the large eddies was a coherent vortex loop consisting of two counter-rotating vortices with strong downward momentum. Breaking wave vortices impinged on the bottom under the wave crest in plunging waves and induced large bed shear stress fluctuations when the wave-induced (mean) flow was shoreward, while they reached the bottom later in spilling waves and mainly affected the negative bed shear stresses after flow reversal. When the boundary layer was not disturbed by breaking wave turbulence, the near-bed velocity profile was similar to that observed in non-breaking waves in the laminar/transitional turbulent flow regime. The viscous sublayer and most of the buffer layer were developed by the time of the wave crest and wave trough phases, but a logarithmic region did not always exist. It was found that the instantaneous velocities did not generally conform to a law-of-the-wall profile during vortex impingement and the Spalding wall function underpredicted the bed shear stress in some cases but overpredicted in others.

Maintenance of these assets is critical to ensure they remain reliable and continue to comply with national legal protection standards. There are often critical thresholds of environmental conditions, beyond which maintenance work is unsafe to be carried out. However, as storm surge barriers age and with climate change effects such as sea-level rise and possible changes in storminess, periods when environmental conditions exceed set thresholds will occur more frequently, so carrying out the required work in available maintenance windows will become increasingly challenging. Probabilistic models enable the use of ensemble forecasts of upcoming water levels to determine the likelihood of conditions exceeding the threshold and so can inform on decision making regarding maintenance. This paper evaluates a probabilistic model currently in operational use by Rijkswaterstaat, the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management, to guide maintenance decisions at the Maeslant barrier in the Netherlands. Sixteen years of historic highwater level forecasts from a combination of European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts and Dutch Continental Shelf Model v5 are used with observations from the Hoek van Holland tide gauge to evaluate and sensitivity test the probabilistic model. Binary classification is used to assess the performance of the probabilistic model. Findings show that the model is conservative with 33.1 % of outcomes resulting in a False Alarm. Changing the baseline parameters of critical probability and water level threshold impacts the balance between False Alarm and Miss outcomes. Increasing the critical probability reduces the number of False Alarms but increases the Miss situations, emphasising the trade-off between acceptable risk and time available to carry out maintenance work.

In this study, we propose an innovative method to reduce the analytical burden of probabilistic tsunami inundation assessment by building a surrogate model using deep neural networks (DNNs). Different inputs are tested, including the slip distribution of an earthquake fault, the initial water level distribution, and the water level distribution over time using linear long wave theory. The results show the possibility of predicting the tsunami inundation depths and inundation distributions with some accuracy directly from the slip distributions of earthquake faults rather than from information on initial water levels and subsequent tsunami water levels. These results indicate that, as long as the information on the slip distribution of a fault is available, the tsunami inundation depth and distribution can be instantly predicted using a surrogate model that has appropriately been trained on the outcomes of physical model simulations. This finding may constitute a breakthrough prediction method.

This study developed a model by coupling tide movement, plant growth, and sedimentation to simulate the expansion processes of the <em>Suaeda salsa</em> salt marsh and its adjacent tidal mudflat, while also predicting potential future expansion trends. The results revealed that net sediment height was negative in the tidal mudflat but positive in the salt marsh.

Higher sediment supplies delayed maximum mudflat expansion, suggesting that enhancing sediment availability could mitigate salt marsh loss. However, even with increased sediment, rising sea levels and sediment undersupply over extended periods (decades to centuries) may still result in salt marsh drowning, disappearance, and transformation into tidal mudflats. Our findings highlighted that (i) Pioneer plant survival is crucial for determining salt marsh migration inland or seaward; (ii) Tidal dykes stabilize mudflat areas at the expense of salt marsh loss; (iii) Removing dykes or enhancing sediment supply could help conserve and restore intertidal salt marshes.

This study systematically analyzes the effects of breaking wave parameters, monopile location, and water depth on scour depth and morphology through wave flume experiments. A three-dimensional laser scanning technique was employed to show the evolution of seabed topography. The results indicate that breaking waves cause extensive seabed morphodynamic changes characterized by forming a bar-trough system, which superimpose onto the local scour process around the monopile. Additionally, the pile location parameter <em>α</em>, defined as the ratio of the distance between the monopile and the breaking point to the wavelength, significantly influences the primary scour mechanism, determining the scour depth and morphology. Specifically, when <em>α</em> ranges from 0.35 to 0.55, the monopile is situated in the region of fully developed turbulence, and the maximum scour depth found was approximately 0.5<em>D</em>. As the breaker type transitions from collapsing to plunging, it can prompt the formation of the bar-trough system. Conversely, increasing water depth generates a water cushion effect, suppressing the formation of the bar-trough system and reducing the monopile scour depth. Finally, an empirical formula of monopile scour depth based on <em>KC</em> number, modified Ursell parameter, and monopile location parameter is proposed, which can effectively predict the scour depth in breaking waves.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50996,"journal":{"name":"Coastal Engineering","volume":"200 ","pages":"Article 104764"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143851382","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the general knowledge of increased wave attenuation due to the ecological transformation, a detailed quantification of wave energy dissipation induced by both biogenic structures and a comprehensive understanding of the governing processes remain lacking. This study systematically investigates frictional wave energy dissipation of both biogenic structures by subjecting generic surrogate models to regular, non-breaking waves in reduced-scale wave flume experiments. The results reveal pronounced wave height reductions for both structures, with <em>oyster</em> reefs exhibiting approximately twice the frictional wave energy dissipation (wave friction factor <em>f</em><sub><em>w,OR</em></sub> <em>=</em> 0.44 ± 0.30) of <em>mussel</em> beds (<em>f</em><sub><em>w,MB</em></sub> = 0.21 ± 0.18). Comparing near-bed velocities with topographical roughness parameters identified mussel agglomerations governing the frictional wave energy dissipation in mussel beds and oyster shells in oyster reefs. In <em>mussel</em> beds, form drag dominates frictional resistance under moderate hydrodynamic conditions, whereas flow separation at high intensities substantially lowers the wave energy dissipation. Conversely, <em>oyster reefs maintain wave energy dissipation across a broader hydrodynamic range due to the sharp-edged, rigid shells</em>. The enhanced wave attenuation by <em>oyster</em> reefs and their expected long-term persistence in the Wadden Sea presents an opportunity to complement existing gray coastal protection infrastructure as a nature-based solution. The parameterization of frictional wave energy dissipation presented here enables more accurate hydro-morphodynamic modeling of large-scale sediment dynamics in such soft-bottom environments.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50996,"journal":{"name":"Coastal Engineering","volume":"200 ","pages":"Article 104763"},"PeriodicalIF":4.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143906377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
