In: Vila-Concejo, A.; Bruce, E.; Kennedy, D.M., and McCarroll, R.J. (eds.), Proceedings of the 14th International Coastal Symposium (Sydney, Australia). Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue, No. 75, pp. 73–77. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. A coastal area model with wave-current interaction was presented, and then the performance and applicability of the numerical to morphodynamics around river mouths due to waves, wave-induced currents and river flows were investigated. First, model tests were carried out under a variety of wave and river discharge conditions to investigate their capability of predicting the formation of sand spit and terrace topographies. Second, model verification using a field site was conducted and the applicability was investigated. From the computed results, it was confirmed that the p...
