Abstract

The swash zone is the highly dynamic region near the shoreline where waves run up and down the beach. Swash processes determine whether sand is stored on the upper beach or is transported offshore, and they thus strongly affect shoreline evolution. The swash zone sand transport processes are not fully understood and no generally-valid numerical swash zone sand transport models are available. The Shaping The Beach (2018-2023) research projects aims to develop a new parameterization for sand transport in the swash zone, through a combination of detailed field-scale wave flume experiments and advanced numerical modeling (OpenFoam, XBeach). As a final step, the new parameterization will be implemented in practical morphological modelling systems (e.g. Delft3D) and validated against field cases. This is expected to result in a widely applicable practical morphological model that can reliably predict shoreline evolution.
