Empirical parameterization of setup, swash, and runup
TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical parameterization for extreme runup, defined by the 2% exceedence value, has been developed for use on natural beaches over a wide range of conditions.

TL;DR: A summary of the coastal and marine resources sector review of potential impacts on shorelines, estuaries, coastal wetlands, coral reefs, and ocean margin ecosystems can be found in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hotspot of accelerated sea-level rise on the Atlantic coast of North America
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide field evidence of the existence, magnitude and formative processes of a sea-level-rise hotspot located in one of the world's most densely populated coastal areas encompassing Boston, Providence, New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore and Virginia Beach.
Journal Article
Estimation of Shoreline Position and Change using Airborne Topographic Lidar Data
TL;DR: In this paper, a method was developed for estimating shun-line position from airborne scanning laser data, which allows rapid estimation of objective, GPS-based shoreline positions over hundreds of kilometers of coast, essential for the assessment of large scale coastal behavior.
Journal ArticleDOI
Setup and swash on a natural beach
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured 154 runup time series measured on a moderately steep beach under incident waves varying from 0.4 to 4.0 m significant wave height, and found that the infragravity band appears to become dominant in the swash below some value of ξ0.
