CFD simulations of wind flow across scarped foredunes: Implications for sediment pathways and beach–dune recovery after storms

Beach–dune systems are dynamic geomorphic environments subject to erosion during storms and reconstruction during swell‐dominated inter‐storm periods. Wave‐cut scarps are frequently carved into the beach–dune profile, occasionally eroding the stoss slope of the foredune. Although the rapid phases of...
