Exploring spatiotemporal variations in sediment retention during delta evolution: A numerical experiment using Delft3D
AGU 2024
earth and planetary surface processes | 13 december 2024
Minsik Kim, Jaap Nienhuis, Wonsuck Kim
Deltas are dynamic landscapes shaped by the interplay of sedimentation and creation of accommodation space. The mass balance on a delta surface can be...

The Role of Geotechnical Properties for Sediment Erodibility in Coastal Environments and Challenges of Implementation
AGU 2024
ocean sciences | 12 december 2024
Nina Stark, Nick Brilli, Matthew Florence, Md Rejw...
Geotechnical properties of sediments describe textural and strength characteristics of the seabed and its response to stresses and loads. Their role r...

Seafloor sediments and morphology of Harrison Bay in the Alaskan Beaufort Sea
AGU 2024
earth and planetary surface processes | 10 december 2024
Emily Eidam, Nina Stark, Jaap Nienhuis, Dan Duncan...
Sediments on Arctic continental shelves are impacted by sea ice and ice-related processes for up to nine months per year. As a result, seabed morpholo...
