Interannual Bottom-Intensified Current Thickening Observed on the Continental Slope Off the Southeastern Coast of Hokkaido, Japan

open access: yesFluids, 2022
By rotary empirical orthogonal function and coastal-trapped wave mode analyses, we analyzed current velocity data, collected from 2001 to 2016. The data were obtained by an acoustic Doppler current profiler, deployed upward at a location of 41°39.909′ N,

Continuous measurements of discharge from a horizontal acoustic Doppler current profiler in a tidal river [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs) can be mounted horizontally at a river bank, yielding single-depth horizontal array observations of velocity across the river.

Imaging of Artificial Bubble Distribution Using a Multi-Sonar Array System

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Bubble clusters present in seawater can cause acoustic interference and acoustic signal distortion during marine exploration. However, this interference can also be used as an acoustic masking technique, which has significant implications for military ...

Subtidal water level variation controlled by river flow and tides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Subtidal water level dynamics in the Berau river, East Kalimantan, Indonesia, feature a pronounced fortnightly variation. The daily mean water levels at a station about 60 km from the sea are 0.2–0.6 m higher during spring tide than during neap tide.

Submerged dunes and breakwater embayments mapped using wave inversions of shore-mounted marine X-Band radar data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Surveying very shallow coastal areas, particularly around coastal defences, can be a logistically difficult and time consuming process. A marine-radar based bathymetry mapping technique has been used to remotely map the embayments around a series of ...

Review of empirical models for estimation of dune field characteristics

open access: yesGrađevinar, 2017
The paper presents an overview of the current state-of-the art and an approach to the study of dunes by analysing direct generators of physical processes in river beds.

Measurements of the Outflow Along the Eastern Border of Planinsko Polje, Slovenia

open access: yesActa Carsologica, 2017
Planinsko Polje is the westernmost active polje of Dinaric karst. It is a typical overflow-structural polje, with springs on the southern side feeding the superficial flow of Unica River.

3D reconstruction of ocean velocity from high-frequency radar and acoustic Doppler current profiler: a model-based assessment study [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2020
The effective monitoring and understanding of the dynamics of coastal currents is crucial for the development of environmentally sustainable coastal activities in order to preserve marine ecosystems as well as to support marine and navigation safety ...

Quantification and Analysis of Suspended Sediments Concentration Using Mobile and Static Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler Instruments

open access: yes, 2017
The application of Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) can be used not only for measuring ocean currents, but also for quantifying suspended sediment concentrations (SSC) from acoustic backscatter strength based on sonar principle.

Measuring a Lagrangian drifter’s slip with an onboard ADCP

open access: yesMethodsX, 2019
A perfect Lagrangian drifter should move with the same velocity as the water volume that it is following. Deviations from this ideal will result in a relative velocity between the drifter’s drogue and its surrounding water, commonly named “slip ...
