Sea-level Rise-Induced Effects on Estuary Morphology

When sea-level rise slowed down during the late Holocene, some of these estuaries filled with sediment, where others remained largely unfilled.

Effects of Sea‐Level Rise on Dredging and Dredged Estuary ...

Estuaries and deltas worldwide are facing land loss and drowning due to sea-level rise (SLR). Commonly home to ports, their channels are ...

Sea-level Rise-Induced effects on Estuary Morphology

Most importantly, sea-level rise causes the morphological units in estuaries to shift landward and the upstream part of the system to silt up, given enough ...

Sea level rise impacts on estuarine dynamics: A review

The tidal range may decrease due to dampening effects caused by friction at the estuary bed and banks, as shown in Fig. 3(b). This frictional ...

Impacts of morphological change and sea-level rise on stratification ...

In its main estuary, the water area has been reduced by 21% whilst the average water depth has increased by 2.24 m from 1970s to 2010s. The ...

The Effects of Sea-Level Rise on Estuary Morphology in Dredged ...

Dredging alters the natural dynamics and morphology of estuaries, tending to create deep channels and high intertidal bars and shoals (van Dijk et al., 2020).

Sea-level Rise-Induced Effects on Estuary Morphology

Most importantly, sea-level rise causes the morphological units in estuaries to shift landward and the upstream part of the system to silt up, given enough ...

Impacts of Relative Sea-level Rise on Evolution of Shallow Estuaries

quantify those morphological features of shallow estuaries relevant to the generation of non-linear tidal distortion, geometric parameters must be defined. The ...

Impacts of Sea‐Level Rise on Morphodynamics and Riverine ...

We find that estuarine response to SLR is influenced by both morphological changes to channel capacity and the associated changes to channel ...

(PDF) Sea level rise impacts on estuarine dynamics: A review

The morphology of estuaries and friction across intertidal surfaces influences tidal propagation; accordingly, sea-level rise not only increases ...

Response of estuarine morphology to storm surge barriers, closure ...

Despite decreasing erosion, sea level rise enhances the drowning of intertidal flats in sediment-scarce estuarine systems, thereby pressuring ...

Sea level rise impacts on estuarine dynamics - UNSW Sydney

(2019). Tide, river inflow. Tidal range, sediment dynamics, morphology. 1 m. 36 estuaries worldwide. A 1D hydrodynamic model that solves the shallow water ...

Morphological changes in a macro-tidal estuary during extreme ...

The results of this study demonstrate that estuarine circulation plays a key role in morphology change. The magnitude of bed thickness erosion can reach 22% of ...

Hydro- and Morphodynamic Impacts of Sea Level Rise: The Minho ...

With this river flow forcing, the morphological changes are restricted to the estuary mouth. However, the cumulative erosion/accretion suffers a strong ...

Climate Change, Sea-Level Rise and Implications for Coastal and ...

Climate change and associated sea-level rise will have potential to cause changes in coastal and estuarine physical properties in a number of ways and thereby ...

The effect of sea-level rise on estuary filling - ProQuest

This study focusses on how sea-level rise affects the morphological and hydrodynamic development of filling estuaries. To this end, scaled laboratory ...

Impacts of Sea-Level Rise on Morphodynamics and Flooding in an ...

... study can aid in better understanding the morphological and hydrodynamic response and associated flood dynamics in an estuary to SLR.

Impacts of historic morphology and sea level rise on tidal ...

However, maximum tidal velocities would increase by as much as 5 cm/s (63%) and currents would become more ebb dominant. Results of this study illustrate the ...

Evaluation of future estuarine floods in a sea level rise context - Nature

Regarding rivers inflow, previous studies concluded that freshwater discharges affect the propagation of the tide throughout the estuaries, ...

Effects of droughts, sea level rise, and increase in outfall discharges ...

Sea level rise (SLR) is expected to increase the coastal influence in the estuarine waters on a global scale (Khojasteh et al. 2021). SLR will ...
