Modeling future cliff-front waves during sea level rise and implications for coastal cliff retreat rates

Abstract It is often assumed that future coastal cliff retreat rates will accelerate as global sea level rises, but few studies have investigated how SLR (sea level rise) might change cliff-front wave dynamics. Using a new simple numerical model, this study simulates the number and type (breaking, b...
