Florida International University received a $100,724 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Ocean Sciences under the Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050), awarded December 15, 2025, with completion targeted for August 31, 2027. This collaborative research initiative investigates swash zone dynamics—the near-shore beach area where wave action continuously wets and dries sand while transporting significant sediment volumes. The project delivers comprehensive laboratory experiments, theoretical analyses, and numerical simulations designed to advance understanding of three-dimensional swash zone processes, particularly under obliquely incident (angled) wave conditions, which represent the most common field scenario but remain the least understood aspect of coastal sediment transport. The deliverables include experimental data from controlled laboratory wave flume studies across varying wave forcing conditions and incidence angles, development of open-source numerical modeling capabilities, and new predictive formulations grounded in theoretical considerations. This research aims to establish a foundational knowledge framework addressing sediment transport patterns on beaches—critical given that approximately half of all U.S. beaches face management challenges related to unpredictable sediment transport trends. The project will also contribute workforce development by training two PhD students at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, directly supporting the NSF's mission to strengthen the national scientific enterprise through expanded fundamental knowledge of integrated Earth systems.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
