| dc.description.abstract | Storm-induced morphological changes in coastal barriers are primar ily driven by hydrodynamic forcing. However, in rock-fronted coasts the pres ence of geological features can modulate storm impacts, but the extent to which these non-dynamic variables influence barrier morphological response to storms is still poorly understood. This study explores the influence of intertidal rock plat forms on storm-driven morphological changes. Using the process-based XBeach model, dune erosion during an energetic winter storm was simulated across dif ferent schematic cross-shore profiles, incorporating variable intertidal rock plat form configurations. The schematic profiles are based on existing barrier pro files in the Outer Hebrides, NW Scotland. Calibration of the model involved adjusting friction coefficients of exposed bedrock surfaces to improve the abil ity to reproduce observed nearshore wave heights and morphological changes in pre- and post-storm profiles. The results show that higher intertidal rock plat forms (above mean sea level) are associated with reduced dune erosion, while lower rock platforms are associated with more extensive dune erosion. This high lights the complex interaction between geological control and storm impacts, with implications for improved understanding of coastal resilience and storm-driven morphosedimentary dynamics in rock-fronted barrier systems. | eng |
