Data and scripts underlying Chapter: Designing Nourishments for Dune Development Through Interdisciplinary Modeling

This dataset contains simulation configurations, model outputs, analysis scripts and figures from Chapter 5 of the PhD dissertation "Connecting Coasts: Nature-based Solutions from Nearshore to Dune." The research investigates how nourishment design influences dune growth and natural dune dynamics in coastal environments using interdisciplinary numerical modeling. Two case studies are presented: (1) alternative designs of the Sand Engine mega-nourishment to assess their influence on dune growth, and (2) comparison of a regular beach nourishment with a lagoon-based alternative to evaluate effects on dune dynamics and blowout formation. The research employs three numerical approaches: a process-based aeolian transport model (AeoLiS), a coupled marine-aeolian framework (Delft3D-FM with AeoLiS), and a Lagrangian particle-tracking method (SedTRAILS). The dataset includes model configurations for ten numerical simulations covering different design scenarios, selected model outputs, analysis scripts for extracting key metrics, and the resulting figures used in the dissertation. This comprehensive dataset enables reproducibility of the findings and supports further research on interdisciplinary coastal design.本数据集包含博士学位论文《衔接海岸：从近岸到沙丘的基于自然的解决方案（Connecting Coasts: Nature-based Solutions from Nearshore to Dune.）》第五章的模拟配置、模型输出、分析脚本与图表。本研究采用跨学科数值模拟方法，探究海岸环境中养滩设计对沙丘发育与自然沙丘动态的影响。文中呈现两项案例研究：其一为沙引擎（Sand Engine）巨型养滩工程的多种替代设计方案，用以评估其对沙丘发育的影响；其二为常规海滩养滩与基于潟湖的替代方案的对比分析，以考察其对沙丘动态与风蚀坑形成的效应。本研究采用三类数值模拟手段：基于过程的风沙输运模型（AeoLiS）、搭载AeoLiS的Delft3D-FM海洋-风沙耦合框架，以及拉格朗日粒子追踪方法（SedTRAILS）。本数据集涵盖针对10组不同设计场景的数值模拟模型配置、精选模型输出、用于提取关键指标的分析脚本，以及论文中使用的最终图表。这套完整数据集可保障研究成果的可复现性，并为跨学科海岸设计领域的后续研究提供有力支撑。
