Curious about how waves shape our beaches? 🏖️

🚨We can measure waves along 10s of km of coastline with incredibly high resolution using seafloor telecommunication cables! We show an application of this for understanding waves in sea ice in our new GRL open-access publication: https://t.co/ganBFLEqAm 1/
Interested in dynamics at the land-ocean interface? I am recruiting graduate students to join my research group focused on coastal engineering/processes at @Stanford.

A grand start— the cameras are still standing post-Tropical Storm Ophelia. Excited for continuous imagery of Masonboro over the next year to study beach evolution.
After an incredibly hard push by @christinembaker@mattware_phd@coasthelen, with support from @joewlong@NCReserve@UNCW_CMS, the stereo cams are up! Get ready for a year of MasonBEAST: Beach Evolution Assessment using Stereo Technology on Masonboro Island. So tired, so proud.
@TreillouS @melissarmoulton We performed a few dye release experiments, but primarily focused on trials with wiffle balls and foam as tracer. We currently don’t have plans to analyze the dye release experiments. I am happy to chat if you’re interested!
Rip currents are dangerous for swimmers but also ecologically important – here’s how scientists are working to understand these ‘rivers of the sea’
Thanks Emma Nuss for leading this article with Audrey Casper, @christinembaker, Walter Torres, and me

My #fluids class moved onto waves this week. So I thought I’d show them how water moves under waves to help them bridge the gap between the textbook and real life… here I tracked the centroids of the ping pong balls using openCV for python
🚨 Coastal Folks: please share widely 🚨

Come join the Coastal Hazards Lab at NCSU! @bsciaud1 and I are recruiting a PhD to study multi-decadal habitat evolution on human managed barrier islands. Seeking students interested in geospatial analysis, remote sensing, and coastal modeling. DM or email for more info!
Earlier this week, UW CEE researchers including Ph.D. student Jacob Davis and Professor Jim Thomson deployed technology developed at UW off the coast of Florida to measure ocean waves in the path of Hurricane Ian.
