ABSTRACT Stephenson, W.J. and Abazovic, A. 2016. Measuring Coastal Boulder Movement Under Waves Using Tri-Axial Accelerometers. In: Vila-Concejo, A.; Bruce, E.; Kennedy, D.M., and McCarroll, R.J. (eds.), Proceedings of the 14th International Coastal Symposium (Sydney, Australia). Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue, No. 75, pp. 607–611. Coconut Creek (Florida), ISSN 0749-0208. Boulder entrainment under tsunami or storm wave conditions has been a topic of interest among coastal geomorphologists for the last 25 years. Efforts have been directed to understanding the dynamic conditions under which boulder entrainment occurs and in particular the energy levels required to move boulders of specific sizes. Recent focus on storm waves has highlighted the complexity of the process and that more energetic tsunami waves are not always needed to move larger boulders. Consequently attempts have been made to develop better empirical equations to predict wave height or flow velocity and differentiate between stor...
