Variability of Internally Generated Turbulence in an Estuary, from 100 Days of Continuous Observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present detailed observations of internally generated turbulence in a sheared, stratified natural flow, as well as an analysis of the external factors leading to its generation and temporal variability.

Cross‐Scale Hierarchical Targeted Delivery System Based on Small‐Scale Magnetic Robots

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This article reviews a cross‐scale hierarchical targeted delivery system that integrates magnetic continuum robots and magnetic microrobots. By combining rapid long‐range navigation with precise microscale targeting, the system overcomes key limitations of single‐scale approaches.

Recent Advances in Stimulated Brillouin Scattering in Integrated Photonics

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically surveys recent advances in stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) within integrated photonics. It begins by elucidating the fundamental mechanisms of stimulated coupling between photons and acoustic phonons in nanoscale waveguides, enhanced by the photoelastic and moving boundary effects.

Acoustic and optical methods to infer water transparency at Time Series Station Spiekeroog, Wadden Sea [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2016
Water transparency is a primary indicator of optical water quality that is driven by suspended particulate and dissolved material. A data set from the operational Time Series Station Spiekeroog located at a tidal inlet of the Wadden Sea was used to ...

Sea-Truth Experiments On Acoustic Doppler Current Profiling Systems [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings OCEANS '83, 1983
Two experiments were conducted in the summer of 1982 with "off-the-shelf" AMETEK-Straza DCP4400 acoustic Doppler current profiling systems. The first experiment compared a bottom-mounted upward-looking 300 kHz system against moored current measuring systems.
