       报告内容摘要:The presentation will discuss new projects dealing with laboratory experiments on sediment transport in the presence of (artificial) vegetation and with an initial attempt to model numerically the sinuous salt marsh landscape. Finally, an overview of a recent project on coastal hazards (inundation and erosion) will be provided.

 

       报告人简介:AssociateProfessor Giovanni Cocoobtained a PhD with a thesis on nearshore morphodynamics at the University of Plymouth (UK). After 3 years at the Scripps Institute of Oceanography (USA) and 8 years at the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NZ), in 2011 he joined the University of Cantabria (Spain) with an Excellence fellowship. In 2015 he returned to New Zealand at the University of Auckland where he is currently Associate Professor in the Faculty of Science. At present he is editor of Journal of Geophysical Research Earth Surface and his research interests focus on coastal processes, geomorphology, estuarine ecology, marine geology and complexity.
