Abstract:
People, infrastructure and ecological systems at the coast are vulnerable to several coastal hazards, most of which have, or will, become more serious with changing climate. Climate change is likely to affect rainfall and climate patterns, potentially intensifying and changing seasonal patterns and frequency of storms. Sea-level rise associated with climate change will also impact much of the coastal zone. Despite the threat of coastal disasters, and the projections of increasing hazards under a changing climate, coastal engineering development must continue unabated, leaving many communities at risk of catastrophic losses. For most cities historical events indicate a considerable risk and all coastal communities must live with a certain risk of coastal hazards, but informed coastal engineering can minimize the potential for fatalities and economic loss, and therefore must be undertaken. Here I investigate storms and tsunamis and 1. address the options for obtaining longer records of events and 2. examine the need for incorporating uncertainties of future changes in climate, sea level and and coastal environments.

Abstract:
There are over 60,000 miles (100,000 km) of coastal highways in the United States (US) that are occasionally exposed to coastal waves and water levels. Wise stewardship calls for the integration of coastal engineering principles and practices in the planning and design of these roads and bridges to make them more resilient. A new, 3rd, edition of the primary guidance document Hydraulic Engineering Circular No. 25 (HEC-25), entitled “Highways in the Coastal Environment” was recently released by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). It provides guidance on a range of issues for the design, planning and operation of coastal highways. This manual should help those with little experience in coastal engineering to understand and, as appropriate, to apply scientific methods and engineering approaches that are unique to the coast. For experienced coastal engineers, this manual should serve as a reference document in providing specific highway-oriented assistance and consultation for FHWA and state Department of Transportation projects.

Abstract:
On the U.S. Pacific Northwest (PNW) outer coast, there are both naturally occurring dune backed beaches and cliff backed cobble beaches that have inspired nature- based engineering strategies for erosion control (i.e., sandy and vegetated dunes and dynamic revetments). Coastal communities want to mitigate and/or manage sand movement now, so policy and regulatory-based agencies are seeking the best available knowledge regarding the ecosystem services and dynamics associated with coastal foredune and cobble berms. Management needs and gaps in scientific knowledge and engineering practice often go hand in hand. Therefore we are working to develop guidance documents that combine management needs with the best available engineering and scientific knowledge to identify, synthesize, and address community-driven priorities for coastal dunes and dynamic cobble revetments in the PNW.

Abstract:
The number and cost of coastal disasters, both acute and chronic, is growing and increased attention is being placed on the development of multifaceted resilient solutions. Coastal engineers are at the frontline of designing innovative and adaptive approaches that address the risks posed by storms, rising seas, and changing climate along the margins of land and water. Coastal solutions, more than ever, must be innovative considering sound physical design, ecological impacts and enhancements, economics, and the connected communities.

Abstract:
In this study, an integrated coastal process model was applied to assess impact of coastal flooding and sedimentation in an estuary in Taiwan and to evaluate performance of proposed engineering plans for flood prevention and sedimentation management. This in-situ validated model was used to simulate and predict hydrodynamic processes and morphological changes induced by multiple hydrological forcing such as river flood flows, waves, tides, and storms surges from rivers to the estuary and its adjacent coasts. Simulation results quantified coastal flooding risks, erosions, sedimentation, and channel refilling. Predicted dynamic responses to typhoons and monsoons were utilized for identifying the most effective engineering plan to reshape the geometry of the estuary. After the selected engineering plan was accomplished, this model was applied again to further predict morphological changes in the newly-developed estuary. This paper demonstrates effectiveness of a simulation-based coastal and estuary planning approach to manage flood and sedimentation driven by complex physical processes from river flows, waves, tides, and sediment transport.

Abstract:
This study presents a comprehensive methodology for assessing wave overtopping risks along the Northern Portuguese Coast, spanning from Viana do Castelo to Aveiro. A Python-based algorithm was developed to analyse a 2m resolution Digital Terrain Model (DTM) of the coast, capturing a spatial extent approximately 400m seaward and 600m landward. By generating transects at 100m intervals that conform to the coast's geometry and orientation, key coastal parameters such as the beach slope (derived from the intertidal range) and the critical overtopping threshold were extracted. Utilizing an empirical formula using genetic-programming based algorithm, wave run-up estimations were calculated for specific sea states. The resulting data was integrated into an interactive map, effectively highlighting the region’s most susceptible to wave overtopping and potential coastal flooding. This innovative approach not only facilitates an understanding of the present coastal vulnerability but also provides an invaluable tool for future coastal engineering and management endeavours in the region.

Abstract:
In contrast to most engineering with nature or what are commonly called ‘build with nature’ projects, we term the engineered recovery of degraded coastal ecosystems ‘build for nature’ projects. Baird has been involved with innovative ‘build for nature’ projects in different coastal environments throughout the world, however we here focus on coral reef, seagrass, and marshland recovery projects in the Caribbean. We distinguish these coastal engineering projects from those that build ‘nature-based solutions’ such as artificial wetlands, as well as hybrid projects such as the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA)- funded hybrid coral reef being planning in Biscayne Bay. In contrast to these engineering with nature projects, we showcase ‘build for nature’ projects for which investment of effort was made to understand the problem and tailor an ecosystem-wide solution. In addition, Baird has made significant investment in long-term monitoring of coastal engineering-mediated restoration, to ascertain if ecosystem resilien

Abstract:
Burgeoning coastal development, recreational use, and the future affects of climate change are placing increasing strain on regulators to manage risk associated with coastal hazards. Low-lying coastal communities in particular are vulnerable to a range of natural hazards including coastal erosion, storm surge inundation, tsunami and water safety that come with varying levels of risk to life and property. New Zealand's coastal hazard monitoring network is patchy and resources are limited. As a consequence there is considerable potential for coastal communities are going to need to take a more active role in monitoring their environment and building data bases and knowledge that can be used to better manage their coast. This paper describes simple methodologies based on the needs of various community groups and sound science principles that can be used to monitor beaches and the coastal environment. By employing these tools councils, technical experts and community groups will be able to make better-informed decisions for managing activities in the coastal environment. One of the keys to the successful uptake of a monitoring programme by a community group is its relevance to the group. The programme and the tools provided must fit the interests, needs, capability and resources of the group. This project develops tools for coastal monitoring and targets coastal community groups such as Coast Care, Coastal Hapu, Secondary Schools, and Surf Life Saving Clubs. The monitoring methodologies have been developed in consultation with Tainui ki Whaingaroa hapu, Raglan Area School, and the Waikato Beach Care and Coast Care Bay of Plenty. Successful methodologies for measuring changes on the coast are also those that are matched to the type of beach, use appropriate equipment, collect structured data, provide data to which analysis can be applied, incorporate local knowledge of the environment, and feed results back to the community and other interested parties such as councils and science organisations. This project provides the target groups with simple monitoring methodologies, field forms/checklists, and appropriate survey and measurement equipment (which have undergone field trials) to carry out coastal monitoring. A web-based facility has been developed to input, check and store data; and provide immediate feedback using graphs and images. It also provides background information on coastal processes relevant to monitoring programmes. In this manner, a scientifically robust data set is collected and stored within a secure and future proofed archive, providing valuable information to coastal groups for years to come. Although the primary objective of this research is to develop a means for coastal communities to monitor changes in their environment, there are additional benefits associated with engaging communities in the study of their environment. These benefits include increasing awareness of coastal hazards, capacity building, providing valuable educational resources, and improving the temporal and spatial data coverage of information for the New Zealand coastline.

Abstract:
Excessive pumping in coastal aquifers results in seawater intrusion where optimal and efficient planning is essential. In this study, numerical solution of single potential solution by Strack is combined with genetic algorithm (GA) to find the maximum extraction amount in a coastal aquifer. Seawater intrusion is tracked with the potential value at the extraction well locations. A code is developed by combining GA and a subroutine repeatedly calling MODFLOW as a numerical solver to calculate the potential distribution for different configurations of solution (trial solutions). Potential distributions are used to evaluate the fitness values for GA. The developed model is applied to a previous work by Mantoglou. Another heuristic method, simulated annealing (SA) is utilized to compare the results of GA. Different seawater prevention methods (i.e. injection wells, canals) and decision variables related to those methods (i.e. location of the injection wells or canals) are added to model to further prevent the seawater intrusion and improve the coastal aquifer benefit. A method called &ldquo<br>Alternating Constraints Method&rdquo<br>is introduced to improve the solution for the cases with variable location. The results show that both proposed method and the regular solution with GA or SA prove to be successful methods for the optimal management of coastal aquifers.

Abstract:
A series of fluorinated and non-fluorinated poly(mono- and diitoaconate)s and a perfluorinated acrylate, poly(2-(N-ethylperfluorooctanesulfanamido)ethyl acrylate) have been synthesised, by both solution and bulk chain growth polymerisation methods, characterised and some of their properties (thermal behaviour, surface energy and marine antifouling peformance) have been investigated. Chemical structures were confirmed by Gourier-transform infrared (FTIR) and nuclear magnetic resonance (1H & 13C NMR) spectroscopies, as well as mass spectrometry. Poly(itaconate)s prepared by solution chain growth polymerisation resulted in low average relative molecular mass (Mw <15000), whereas those prepared by bulk chain-growth polymerisation were of high average molecular mass (Mw ca 60000). The thermal degradation behaviour of polu(monoitaconate)s, Mwca60000, was dominated by dehydration/de-esterification reaction at ca 170 deg.C which yielded a poly(anhydride) structure. Poly(diitaconate)s Mwca 60000, were thermally stable up to ca 285 deg.C above which a chain-unzipping process resulted in the formation of monomer as the major degradation product. Glass transition temperatures (Tg) were not observed for poly(monotaconate)s; for poly(hexanoyl diitaconate) Tg was ca -18 deg.C whereas poly(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecanoyl diitaconate) exhibited two glass transition temperatures, attributed respectively to the relaxation of the alkyl side chain (ca 5 deg.C) and the overall polymer transition (ca 35 deg.C). Poly(hexadecanoyl diitaconate) was the only dditaconate to exhibit a melting endotherm. Surface energy contributions were calculated using the surface tension component (Good-Girafalco-Fowkes) theory. Recently-advanced and recently-receded contact angle measurements were performed at 25.0 + or - 0.2 deg.C for drops of water, diiodomethane and ethylene glycol on the itaconates that could be formed into films. Both recently-advanced and recently-retarded contact angles demonstrated the time-dependency of the wetting behaviour for drops of water, attributed to the slow, stepwise absorption of water by the polymer. Contact angles for drops of diiodomethane and ethylene glycol remained constant over time. Poly(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecanoyl diitaconate), PI-2, possessed the most hydrophobic surface (initial recently-advanced water contact angle: ca 120 degrees), whereas the least hydrophobic material was poly(hexadecanoyl diitaconate), PH-2; initial recently-advanced contact angle: ca 96 deg. Poly(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecanoyl diitaconate), PI-2, exhibited the lowest surface energy (advanced ca 7 mJm-2; receded: mean 9.7 mJm-2), whereas poly(hexadecanoyl diitaconate), PH-2 had the highest (advanced: ca 31-37 mJ m-2; receded 39.7 mJm-2). Poly(dodecanoyl monoitaconate), PA-5/6 exhibited surface energies of ca 22 mJ m-2 (advanced) and ca 31 mJ m-2 (receded). The low surface energy of poly(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecanoyl diitaconate), PI-2 is attributed to both the high hydrophobicity of the surface and the presence of pendent fluorocarbon side chains, which prevent the interaction of diiodomethane molecules with the polymer backbone. The relatively high surface energy of poly(hecadecanoyl diitaconate), PI-2, is due to the lower contact angles measured for this material. Increases in the basic contribution over time and its larger value relative to corresponding acidic contributions are attributed to the uptake of water by the polymer; hydrogen bonding with oxygen atoms of the ester linking group may provide the driving force behind the observed phenomenon. Antifouling performances were evaluated in seawater exposure trials over two fouling seasons. The sequence of fouling events was similar in both seasons: initial settlement by barnacles and algae follwed by settlement of tunicates. In the 1995 exposure trial polymers prepared by solution chain-growth polymerisation as well as a selection of commercial materials were evaluated. All samples exhibited almost no resistance to marine fouling. Suggested contributory factors to their poor performance was their low average relative molecular mass (Mw <15000), a variability of sample coatings or the ineffectiveness of the samples against the inhibition/prevention of settlement/attachment by marine fouling organisms. In the 1996 trial, high average molecular mass poly(itaconate) films prepared by bulk chain-growth polymerisation reactions were exposed. Poly(dodecanoyl monoitaconate)(PA-6), poly(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecanoyl monoitaconate) (PE-6) and poly(hexadecanoyl diitaconate) (PH-2) exhibited slight resistance to marine fouling, with resistances for these materials after seven months of exposure, of 13%, 18% and 34% respectively (control surfaces had fouling resistances of -5%). Areas free from coverage by fouling organisms were observed on all samples. The overall low resistance of poly(itaconate) can most likely be attributed to the absorption of water by these polymer films.

Abstract:
Mixed sand and gravel beaches are an important means of sea defence. The majority of beaches in the south coast of the UK are of the mixed type and beach replenishment is generally needed in order to maintain the effectiveness of these beaches against storm wave attacks. Despite vigorous research efforts in recent years, coastal engineers still do not have a reliable method to estimate the sediment budget in their designs. In addition, there is also a lack of understanding of the impacts of beach maintenance activities, such as recycling and re-profiling, on the performance of the beach and on the economics in maintaining the beach system. This thesis is mainly focused on establishing the relationships between sediment transport of a mixed beach and the wave climate, and between the beach performance and beach maintenance activities. The thesis also aims to establish essential considerations coastal engineers need to give when planning beach maintenance operations.

Abstract:
The construction of resilient infrastructure and buildings is a key requirement for sustainable cities and communities. Tsunami is a natural hazard that can have a devastating impact on coastal communities. The 2010 Chile and 2011 Great East Japan tsunamis changed the way that structural engineers estimate design loads for structures. During these events, coastal protective structures and waterfront concrete buildings failed to sustain the tsunami hydrodynamic forces. This paper demonstrates the performance evaluation of a numerically simulated case-study tall building located at the Karachi coastal belt employing the ASCE 7-16 provisions. Results include the resilient-based assessment of the overall building and individual component performance when subjected to hydrodynamic loadings and debris damming effects due to active-sea debris such as wooden logs and shipping containers.

Full text
Abstract:
The Engineering With Nature® (EWN®) program within the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) funds research projects occurring in a myriad of environments, including in marine coasts, freshwater coasts, and fluvial (riverine) systems. Yet there have been fewer projects documented where EWN principles have been applied in urban landscapes, particularly to manage flood risk, a main civil works mission of the USACE. Natural hazards including increased flashiness associated with intense rainfall events have prompted the need for more sustainable infrastructure solutions that reduce flood risks in urban areas, especially when such solutions desired by stakeholders are nature-based solutions. This technical note documents a flood risk management project in Norfolk, Virginia, that incorporates EWN principles in a tidal estuary environment that not only reduces flood risk, but also provides numerous other environmental, social, and economic benefits.

Full text
Abstract:
This Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) describes the continuing efforts towards incorporating rapid tidal time-series reconstruction and prediction capabilities into the Coastal Hazards System (CHS) and the Stochastic Storm Simulation System (StormSim). The CHS (Nadal-Caraballo et al. 2020) is a national effort for the quantification of coastal storm hazards, including a database and web tool (https://chs.erdc.dren.mil) for the deployment of results from the Probabilistic Coastal Hazard Analysis (PCHA) framework. These PCHA products are developed from regional studies such as the North Atlantic Coast Comprehensive Study (NACCS) (Nadal-Caraballo et al. 2015; Cialone et al. 2015) and the ongoing South Atlantic Coast Study (SACS). The PCHA framework considers hazards due to both tropical and extratropical cyclones, depending on the storm climatology of the region of interest. The CHS supports feasibility studies, probabilistic design of coastal structures, and flood risk management for coastal communities and critical infrastructure. StormSim (https://stormsim.erdc.dren.mil) is a suite of tools used for statistical analysis and probabilistic modeling of historical and synthetic storms and for stochastic design and other engineering applications. One of these tools, the Coastal Hazards Rapid Prediction System (CHRPS) (Torres et al. 2020), can perform rapid prediction of coastal storm hazards, including real-time hurricane-induced flooding. This CHETN discusses the quantification and validation of the Advanced Circulation (ADCIRC) tidal constituent database (Szpilka et al. 2016) and the tidal reconstruction program Unified Tidal analysis (UTide) (Codiga 2011) in the Puerto Rico and U.S. Virgin Islands (PR/USVI) coastal regions. The new methodology discussed herein will be further developed into the Rapid Tidal Reconstruction (RTR) tool within the StormSim and CHS frameworks.

Full text
Abstract:
The purpose of this Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering technical note (CHETN) is to describe how historic Automatic Identification System (AIS) vessel position data were used to identify a design vessel for use in a storm surge barrier design study. Specifically, this CHETN describes how the AIS data were accessed, how the universe of vessel data was refined to allow for design vessel selection, and how that selection was used in a storm surge barrier (SSB) study. This CHETN draws upon the New Jersey Back Bays Coastal Storm Risk Management Feasibility Study (USACE-NAP 2019), specifically the Appendix B.2 Engineering Appendix Civil document1. The New Jersey Back Bays Study itself builds upon the work of the North Atlantic Coast Comprehensive Study (NACCS) initiated after Hurricane Sandy in 2012 (USACE 2015a).

Abstract:
The purpose of this Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) is to highlight emerging tools for inlet geomorphic mapping and describe the workflows used to implement the tools. The Coastal Inlets Research Program (CIRP) maintains the US Coastal Inlets Atlas, which houses technical information (e.g., physical processes, navigation channel position, federal authorization for management purposes) on tidal inlets. Future expansion of the Atlas should include ready-made products that address a call from coastal inlet managers and practitioners to map inlet geomorphic change and features more accurately. The methods and workflows demonstrated in this document represent the first step towards expanding the US Coastal Inlets Atlas.

Brodie, Katherine, Ian Conery, Nicholas Cohn, Nicholas Spore, and Margaret Palmsten. Spatial variability of coastal foredune evolution, part A : timescales of months to years. Engineer Research and Development Center (U.S.), 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.21079/11681/41322.

Full text
Abstract:
Coastal foredunes are topographically high features that can reduce vulnerability to storm-related flooding hazards. While the dominant aeolian, hydrodynamic, and ecological processes leading to dune growth and erosion are fairly well-understood, predictive capabilities of spatial variations in dune evolution on management and engineering timescales (days to years) remain relatively poor. In this work, monthly high-resolution terrestrial lidar scans were used to quantify topographic and vegetation changes over a 2.5 year period along a micro-tidal intermediate beach and dune. Three-dimensional topographic changes to the coastal landscape were used to investigate the relative importance of environmental, ecological, and morphological factors in controlling spatial and temporal variability in foredune growth patterns at two 50 m alongshore stretches of coast. Despite being separated by only 700 m in the alongshore, the two sites evolved differently over the study period. The northern dune retreated landward and lost volume, whereas the southern dune prograded and vertically accreted. The largest differences in dune response between the two sections of dunes occurred during the fall storm season, when each of the systems’ geomorphic and ecological properties modulated dune growth patterns. These findings highlight the complex eco-morphodynamic feedback controlling dune dynamics across a range of spatial scales.

Full text
Abstract:
This study, for the first time, combines the Coastal Engineering Resilience Index (CERI) and Buffer Width (BW) metrics to better understand the historic, current, and future resilience of the coastal system at Panama City Beach, Florida. After the construction of the US Army Corps of Engineers Coastal Storm Risk Management (CSRM) project at Panama City Beach, the CERI resilience metric has increased up to 21.3%, while negative storm impacts in the same have been less than 8%. The frequency of nourishment efforts moving forward is justified by a 24.3% increase in the BW metric when comparing cases that are nourished frequently with cases that are not nourished frequently. Moreover, there is a 129.2% increase in the BW metric when comparing the frequently nourished cases with the cases that are nourished only on an emergency basis. While the CERI and BW metrics have both been considered previously, their combined application provides an understanding of a broader temporal view of how storm events, CSRM projects, and nourishments have played a part in the resilience of the system at Panama City Beach over the last two decades and how they may play a role in the next half century.

Full text
Abstract:
The goal of this Coastal and Hydraulics Engineering Technical Note (CHETN) is to document initial results to derive topography on the beachface in the northern Outer Banks, North Carolina, utilizing Planet Labs’ SkySat stereo panchromatic imagery processed in Agisoft Metashape. This technical note will provide an initial evaluation into whether Planet Lab’s SkySat imagery is a suitable image source for satellite Structure from Motion (SfM) algorithms as well as whether these data should be explored as a federal beach project monitoring tool. Depending on required accuracy, these data have the potential to aid coastal scientists, managers, and US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) engineers in understanding the now-state of their coastlines and employ cost-effective adaptive management techniques.

Abstract:
The US Army Corps of Engineers, Galveston District, is executing the Sabine Pass to Galveston Bay Coastal Storm Risk Management (CSRM) project for Brazoria, Jefferson, and Orange Counties regions. The project is currently in the Pre-construction, Engineering, and Design phase. This report documents coastal storm water level (SWL) and wave hazards for the Freeport CSRM structures. Coastal SWL and wave loading and overtopping are quantified using high-fidelity hydrodynamic modeling and stochastic simulations. The CSTORM coupled water level and wave modeling system simulated 195 synthetic tropical storms on three relative sea level change scenarios for with- and without-project meshes. Annual exceedance probability (AEP) mean values were reported for the range of 0.2 to 0.001 for peak SWL and wave height (Hm0) along with associated confidence limits. Wave period and mean wave direction associated with Hm0 were also computed. A response-based stochastic simulation approach is applied to compute AEP values for overtopping for levees and overtopping, nappe geometry and combined hydrostatic and hydrodynamic fluid pressures for floodwalls. CSRM crest design elevations are defined based on overtopping rates corresponding to incipient damage. Survivability and resilience are evaluated. A system-wide hazard level assessment was conducted to establish final recommended system-wide elevations.
