L. Portos - Amill MSc (Laura) | University of Twente

Within the MELODY project (ModEling LOwer shoreface Seabed DYnamics for a Climate-Proof Coast) I study tidal sand waves on the lower shoreface. In particular, I study how they affect the flow and how they interact with larger-scale topography (sand banks and the sloping lower shoreface itself). That means, how a sloping background topography affects sand wave formation and evolution, and vice versa.
