Abstract:
Coastal foredunes are natural aeolian bedforms located landward of the backshore and which interact continuously with the beach. Traditionally, coastal dunes have been associated with onshore winds, however they can be found under more complex wind regimes where offshore winds are common such as the UK East coast, Northern Ireland and New Zealand. This research investigates the ways in which foredune-beach interactions occur under a complex wind regime at a range of overlapping temporal and spatial scales and is innovative in that it explicitly links small-scale processes and morphodynamic beh

Les dunes de sable éoliennes à différentes échelles (m-km) sont les principales formes topographiques dans les systèmes éoliens et se retrouvent sur divers corps planétaires comme la Terre, Mars ou Vénus. Elles résultent de l'interaction entre le vent, les sédiments transportés et le substratum. La forme, la taille, la disposition spatiale et le déplacement des dunes permet d'analyser les interactions entre les flux d'air et l'apport de sédiments, modulés par les conditions de surface.

Abstract:
Extreme storms are responsible for rapid changes to coastlines worldwide. During the 2013/14 winter, the west coast of Europe experienced a sequence of large, storm-induced wave events, representing the most energetic period of waves in the last 60 years. The southwest coast of England underwent significant geomorphological change during that period, but exhibited a range of spatially variable and complex morphological responses, despite being subjected to the same storm sequence. The 2013/14 storm response along the southwest coast of England was first used as a natural field laboratory to ex

Abstract:
Coastal foredune evolution involves complex processes and controls. Although a great deal is known about the effects of vegetation cover, moisture, and fetch distance on sediment supply, and of topographic forcing on airflow dynamics, the role of large woody debris (LWD) as a modulator of sediment supply and a control on foredune growth is understudied. Large assemblages of LWD are common on beaches near forested watersheds and collectively have a degree of porosity that increases aerodynamic roughness and provides substantial sand trapping volume. To date, no research has attempted to underst

This thesis explores the geomorphic implications of large woody debris (LWD) residing in the backshore of beach-dune systems along the northeastern coasts of Haida Gwaii (Queen Charlotte Islands), British Columbia, Canada. Detailed topographic surveys were employed to quantify seasonal mass balance of the beach-dune systems along two distinctly different coastlines. Erosion and accretion potential models were applied to characterize sediment transport conditions.

Abstract:
Increases in the frequency and magnitude of extreme water levels and storm surges are observed along some areas of the British Columbia coast to be correlated with known climatic variability (CV) phenomena, including the El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and the Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO). Since a shift to a positive PDO regime in 1977, the effect of ENSO events have been more frequent, persistent, and intense. Teleconnected impacts include more frequent storms, higher surges, and greater coastal erosion. Geomorphic recovery of regional beach-dune systems from erosive events is usual
