abstractsThe objective of this study is to determine differences between design wave heights determinedon the basis of short- and long-term wave trains. Wave parameters measured over a period of7.47 years in the vicinity of Coastal Research Station Lubiatowo were used as short-term wavedata, while wave parameters determined through the so-called wave reconstruction for a periodof 44 years for the same region and depth were used as long-term wave data. The results of thecalculations lead to the conclusions the significant wave height distributions obtained for shortand long-term wave data are similar.

abstractsThis paper analyses cross-shore bathymetric profiles between Władysławowo (km 125 of thePolish coastal chainage) and Lake Sarbsko (km 174) done in 2005 and 2011. Spaced every500 m, they cover beach topography from dune/cliff crests to a seabed depth of about 15 m.They were decomposed by signal processing techniques to extract the monotonic componentof beach topography and to perform a straightforward assessment of wave energy dissipa-tion rates. Three characteristic dissipation patterns were identified: one associated with largenearshore bars and 2–3 zones of wave breaking; a second, to which the equilibrium beachprofile concept can be applied; and a third, characterized by mixed behaviour. An attemptwas then made to interpret these types of wave energy dissipation in terms of local coastalmorphological features and the underlying sedimentary characteristics.

abstractsThe paper deals with the influence of the wave shape, represented by water surface elevationsand wave-induced nearbed velocities, on sediment transport under joint wave-current impact.The focus is on the theoretical description of vertically asymmetric wave motion and the effectsof wave asymmetry on net sediment transport rates during interaction of coastal steady cur-rents, namely wave-driven currents, with wave-induced unsteady free stream velocities. Thecross-shore sediment transport is shown to depend on wave asymmetry not only quantitatively(in terms of rate), but also qualitatively (in terms of direction). Within longshore lithodynamics,wave asymmetry appears to have a significant effect on the net sediment transport rate.
