    • A morphodynamic mechanism for transverse bars in the nearshore 

      Caballeria, Miquel; Falqués, Albert; Coco, G.; Huntley, D.A. (2001)
      Sand bars which are normal to the coastline have been described on sandy beaches Irom low to moderate wave energy (Niedoroda and Tanner, 1979; Konicki and Holman, 2000). A generating mechanism lor such ...

    • Modeling shoreline sand waves on the coasts of Namibia and Angola 

      Ribas Prats, Francesca; Falqués, Albert; Van den Berg, Niels; Caballeria, Miquel (2013)
      The southwestern (SW) coast of Africa (Namibia and Angola) features long sandy beaches and a wave climate dominated by energetic swells from the Southsouthwest (SSW), therefore approaching the coast ...

    • On themechanism of wavelength selection of self-organized shoreline sand waves 

      Van den Berg, Niels; Falqués, Albert; Ribas Prats, Francesca; Caballeria, Miquel (2014)
      Sandy shorelines exposed to very oblique wave incidence can be unstable and develop self-organized shoreline sand waves. Different types of models predict the formation of these sand waves with an ...

    • Video observations of crescentic sandbar formation and modelling implications 

      Coco, G.; Ruessink, B.G.; Van Enckevort, I.M.J.; Caballeria, Miquel; Falqués, Albert; Holman, R.A.; Plant, N.G.; Turner, I.L. (2005)
      The development of surf zonc crescentic sandbars has beeo analyzed using video observations al lhrce sites: Duck (USA), Gold Coast (Australia). and NoordwiJk (The Netherlands). Video observations ...

    • What determines the wavelength of self-organized shoreline sand waves? 

      Falqués, Albert; Van den Berg, Niels; Ribas Prats, Francesca; Caballeria, Miquel (2012)
      Shoreline undulations extending into the bathymetric contours with a length scale larger than that of the rhythmic surf zone bars are referred to as shoreline sand waves. Many observed undulations along ...
