Research Title

Morphodynamics of mixed sand-gravel tidal inlets and the adjacent shorelines: a multi-model approach

More about Jie

My PhD project focuses on morphodynamics, hydrodynamics, sediment transport, climate change's impacts on the mixed sand-gravel (MSG) tidal inlets, and adjacent shoreline management. Multiple models and machine learning applications in the MSG tidal inlets morphodynamics evolution.
