Estimating runup with limited bathymetry

Athina M. Z. Lange et al.

Summary: Wave runup estimates are crucial in erosion and overtopping models, but are often limited by incomplete knowledge of surf and swash bathymetry. This study extends an empirical model relating runup to wave spectra by including an effective mid-surfzone slope, beta(eff), and finds that setup and infragravity runup depend more strongly on beta(eff) than on foreshore beta(f). By considering both beta(eff) and beta(f), the accuracy of the empirical model is improved.

Hotspot dune erosion on an intermediate beach

Nicholas Cohn et al.

Summary: In Fall 2015, a large, low-pressure Nor'easter storm and Hurricane Joaquin caused sustained elevated wave and water level conditions along the southeastern Atlantic coast of the United States for multiple weeks. Sea level anomalies exceeding 1 m and offshore wave heights up to 4 m were recorded, resulting in highly variable morphologic changes to the dune over short spatial scales.

Digital terrain model elevation corrections using space-based imagery and ICESat-2 laser altimetry

Lori Magruder et al.

Summary: Global surface models derived from space-based technologies, particularly radar and imaging systems, have advantages in spatial and temporal coverage. However, challenges arise in producing accurate elevations in certain environmental conditions compared to laser altimetry. Utilizing NASA's ICESat-2 with Landsat 8 data, a model-based correction strategy has shown significant improvement in elevation accuracy, paving the way for future research and applications on a global scale.

Global Satellite-Based Coastal Bathymetry from Waves

Rafael Almar et al.

Summary: The S2Shores project has introduced the first sub-kilometer global atlas of coastal bathymetry, utilizing depth inversion from wave kinematics captured by the Sentinel-2 constellation. While the vertical accuracy is currently coarser than traditional surveying techniques, S2Shores is particularly beneficial for countries without the means for in situ surveys and unexplored polar regions. This project is a significant advancement in addressing the impact of global changes on coastal communities and ecosystems.

A Self-Adaptive Method for Mapping Coastal Bathymetry On-The-Fly from Wave Field Video

Matthijs Gawehn et al.

Summary: Coastal bathymetry mapping through remote sensing is becoming more attractive to the coastal community due to the increasing availability of drone and satellite data, advancements in data science, and an open-source mindset. An innovative video processing algorithm has been proposed in this study to automatically adapt to video data and continuously return mapping updates, making wave-based remote sensing more inclusive. The algorithm has been successfully demonstrated in fieldsites in the USA, the UK, the Netherlands, and Australia, showcasing its capability to provide accurate and fast coastal reconnaissance by analyzing video feeds from drones or cameras.

Pan-European Satellite-Derived Coastal Bathymetry-Review, User Needs and Future Services

Guillaume Cesbron et al.

Summary: Low-lying coastal zones are home to around 10% of the world's population and many megacities, but nearly 50% of the world's coastal waters remain unsurveyed due to the high costs and risks involved. Bathymetry influences ocean waves and currents, shaping coastal morphology over time. Satellite-Derived Bathymetry emerges as an effective tool for mapping coastal bathymetry and its temporal evolution by leveraging satellite constellations and complementary methods.

Bathymetric Data Requirements for Operational Coastal Erosion Forecasting Using XBeach

Nashwan Matheen et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the impact of up-to-date bathymetry data on accurate coastal erosion predictions using the XBeach morphodynamic model. The results indicate that alternative bathymetries can yield similar or better sub-aerial erosion predictions compared to those obtained from a pre-storm surveyed bathymetry, given rigorous model calibration. This study provides practical guidance for selecting suitable nearshore bathymetry for operational coastal erosion early warning systems.
