Geomorphology

Our group’s most recent graduate, Dr. Juan Felipe Paniagua-Arroyave published two papers in the latest issue of Continental Shelf Research.  This work was done in collaboration with our colleagues in the research group of Dr. Arnoldo Valle-Levinson, in UF Coastal Engineering.  The first of these papers examines tidal motions and infragravity waves interacting with the complex […]

This month, our group has offered a hypothesis about the geomorphic origin of the Merritt Island-Cape Canaveral Sedimentary Complex (MICCSC) and the possibility of St. Johns River reversal some time in the Holocene. The work was published online Jan. 11th in and will be formally released in the April 2018 issue of Geomorphology. The .pdf […]

Recent post-doc Patrick Limber has published the results of his work linking a pre-existing Coastal Evolution Model (CEM) to the sophisticated wave transformation model, SWAN.  In this paper, Pat demonstrated how this coupled model can be used to simulate the growth of small protuberances  in the lee of irregular bathymetry along sandy coasts.  Pat has […]

A recent publication by our research group highlights the influence of an ebb-tidal delta on nearby beach behavior on the North Florida Atlantic coast.  This project emerged as a collaborative effort from a combination of field surveys, led by Katherine Malone Keough during 2009-2010, and numerical modeling contributed by our colleague from UF Coastal Engineering, Maitane Olabarrieta.

Recent M.S. graduate, Kat Wilson was the lead author on a study resulting from her M.S. work at the UF Geomorph lab, in collaboration with our colleagues at the USGS in St. Pete.  In the paper, we present an updated Baysian model that incorporates the frequency and magnitude of natural and anthropogenic processes to successfully hindcast shoreline change and […]
