A framework for modelling shoreline response to clustered storm events: A case study from southeast Australia. 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. 1197 - 1201. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. An overview of a framework for modelling shoreline response to clustered storm events is presented for a case study area on the high energy coast of southeast Australia. We adopt the coastal sediment compartment as the functional management and modelling unit and use sub-surface information (ground-penetrating radar) to assess sediment thickness in the upper beach and foredune. Results for an actively eroding beach face at Old Bar Beach (New South Wales) indicate that sand cover is highly variable at the critical bea... |
