title: Effect of Storm Surges and Wind Waves on Morphodynamic Processes in the Bakalskaya Spit Region
abstract: The effect of changing of wind wave directions and heights as well as storm surge heights on the erosion and accumulation processes in the Bakalskaya Spit region of the Black Sea is studied. Numerical model XBeach (eXtreme Beach behavior) is used. The model includes the interacting blocks for calculating short wind waves, barotropic currents and sediment dynamics. It is shown that the XBeach model reproduces basic characteristics of the Bakalskaya Spit dynamics obtained from the observational da
