title = "Nearshore hydrodynamics and wave runup on rocky shore platforms",
abstract = "Shore platforms are ubiquitous rocky coastal features that shape nearshore hydrodynamic processes along many wave-exposed coastlines globally. These nearshore processes influence wave-induced water level variability at the shoreline (i.e., wave runup), however the relationship between nearshore and shoreline processes is not well understood. This thesis aims to use field observations on a high wave energy, morphologically-complex shore platform in combination with idealised two-dimensional(2D) and three-dimensional (3D) numerical modelling to improve our understanding of nearshore hydrodynamic processes and wave runup on shore platforms.",
