A framework for national-scale coastal storm hazards early warning Open
National weather forecasting agencies routinely issue a range of hazard warnings. But to our knowledge, along sandy coastlines where storm waves and storm surge can result in widespread but location-specific beach erosion and beachfront fl…

Eastern Australian estuaries will transition to tidal flood regimes in coming decades Open
Tidal flooding occurs when coastal water levels exceed impact-based flood thresholds due to tides alone, under average weather conditions. Transitions to tidal flood regimes are already underway for nuisance flood severities in harbours an…

A storm hazard matrix combining coastal flooding and beach erosion Open
Coastal storms cause widespread damage to property, infrastructure, economic activity, and the environment. Along open sandy coastlines, two of the primary coastal storm hazards are coastal flooding by elevated ocean water levels and beach…

Examining the impact of the Great Barrier Reef on tsunami propagation using numerical simulations Open
Coral reefs may provide a beneficial first line of defence against tsunami hazards, though this is currently debated. Using a fully nonlinear, Boussinesq propagation model, we examine the buffering capacity of the Great Barrier Reef agains…

The Influence of Carbonate Platforms on the Geomorphological Development of a Mixed Carbonate‐Siliciclastic Margin (Great Barrier Reef, Australia) Open
Sedimentation regimes on the Great Barrier Reef margin often do not conform to more conventional sequence stratigraphic models, presenting difficulties when attempting to identify key processes that control the margin's geomorphological ev…

Understanding the influence of passive continental margin geometry on shallow and deep hydrodynamic and sedimentary processes Open
The hydrodynamic and sedimentary processes that operate on submerged passive continental margins are often difficult to study due to their remoteness and the sparse data coverage associated with these regions. Numerical simulations provide…
