  • Oceanography (27.43%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Hydrology, Sediment, Oceanography, Sediment transport and Erosion. His Hydrology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Vegetation, Climate change, Ecosystem and Salt marsh. The Sediment study combines topics in areas such as Estuary and Grain size.

His work on Shore and Monsoon as part of general Oceanography research is frequently linked to Visual detection and Ripple marks, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Sediment transport research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Scale, Point, Shoal and Applied mathematics. Marcel J. F. Stive focuses mostly in the field of Surf zone, narrowing it down to topics relating to Magnitude and, in certain cases, Hindcast and Mechanics.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Initial spreading of a mega feeder nourishment : Observations of the Sand Engine pilot project (87 citations)
  • Short-term mudflat dynamics drive long-term cyclic salt marsh dynamics (65 citations)
  • Coastal Mangrove Squeeze in the Mekong Delta (58 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Statistics
  • Oceanography
  • Climate change

His primary areas of study are Hydrology, Sediment, Erosion, Vegetation and Coastal erosion. Marcel J. F. Stive studies Hydrology, focusing on Beach nourishment in particular. The various areas that he examines in his Sediment study include Boundary layer thickness, Silt, Oceanography and Grain size.

His Oceanography research integrates issues from Canopy, Flood myth, Flooding and Temporal scales. His Vegetation study also includes

  • Ecosystem, which have a strong connection to Wetland, Spatial variability, Disturbance, Channel and Marsh,
  • Salt marsh which intersects with area such as Elevation, Climate change and Estuary. His Coastal erosion study incorporates themes from Deposition, Physical geography and Extraction.
