Gradual Inlet Expansion and Barrier Drowning Under Most Sea Level Rise Scenarios
JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH: EARTH SURFACE
06 november 2023
Laura Portos-Amill, Jaap Nienhuis, H E. De Swart
The expected increase in rates of sea level rise during the 21st century and beyond may cause barrier islands to drown. Barrier drowning occurs due...

Why do some rivers build deltas and others don't?
RIVER DELTAS: HYDROLOGY, GEOMORPHOLOGY, AND SEDIMENTOLOGY I ORAL
earth and planetary surface processes | 15 december 2022
Jaap Nienhuis, Andrew D. Ashton, Ton Hoitink, Albe...
River deltas are formed by fluvial sediment, but how much fluvial sediment is sufficient to make one? Is there a minimum delta size? In this presentat...
