• Nearshore hydro- and morphodynamics emphasize bore propagation, shoreward shoaling, and shoreline response, showing how beach slope and coastal structures govern wave transformation and bore capture through analytical, numerical, and experimental results. [3], [16], [12], [19]

• Sediment transport and sedimentary coastlines framing coastal morphology and management, combining shoreline classification, sediment stabilization, and sand ridge structures to explain barrier development and energy-driven shoreline evolution. [1], [10], [4], [20], [2]

• Internal wave and tide dynamics in coastal zones: generation, observation, and nearshore propagation highlight coupling between surface tides and stratified interior waves, shaping coastal energy pathways. [8], [9], [7]

• Instrumentation and measurements underpin coastal oceanography: thermograd-based thermal profiling and seawater conductivity work enable interpretation of thermal, salinity, and energy fields affecting nearshore hydraulics. [7], [13], [8]
