Barrier island morphology and sediment characteristics affect the recovery of dune building grasses following storm-induced overwash. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Barrier islands are complex and dynamic systems that provide critical ecosystem services to coastal populations. Stability of these systems is threatened by rising sea level and the potential for coastal storms to increase in frequency and intensity ...

Nickel Intercalation in Epitaxial Graphene on SiC(0001): A Novel Platform for Engineering Two-Dimensional Heterostructures. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
Ni‐intercalated graphene on SiC is achieved through a scalable colloidal nanoparticle deposition route. 2D heterostructures show preserved graphene band structure, stable under ambient conditions, and robust interfacial magnetism. Intercalated 2D Ni represents a promising candidate for next‐generation spintronic devices and is a scalable pathway to ...

Satellite-Derived Barrier Response and Recovery Following Natural and Anthropogenic Perturbations, Northern Chandeleur Islands, Louisiana

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
The magnitude and frequency of storm events, relative sea-level rise (RSLR), sediment supply, and anthropogenic alterations drive the morphologic evolution of barrier island systems, although the relative importance of any one driver will vary with the ...

Plio-Quaternary Sandy Deposits and Microbial Buildups at the Southern Marmara Shelf Near Shoreface Area, Turkey

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environment and Geoinformatics, 2014
Understanding the formation and evolution mechanism of the sandy deposits plays key role to define the hydrodynamics of the shelves and coasts. The barrier islands determined from high resolution chirp seismic reflection profiles, were started to deposit

A Return to Normality: A Descriptive Qualitative Interview Study Exploring the Patient Experience of Gout Flare Resolution

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Although the definition of a gout flare is well established, the state of gout flare resolution has not yet been defined. This study aimed to explore patients’ experiences and perceptions of gout flare resolution. Methods Semistructured interviews were conducted with 24 people with gout, guided by open‐ended questions exploring their ...

Morphological response of vegetated and urbanized barrier islands to Hurricane Ian [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
Barrier islands are vulnerable to extreme storm events which cause erosion and deposition of sediment. These morphological changes pose risks to both the built environment and natural habitats but are also affected by them.

The Future of Developed Barrier Systems: 2. Alongshore Complexities and Emergent Climate Change Dynamics

open access: yesEarth's Future
Developed barrier systems (barrier islands and spits) are lowering and narrowing with sea‐level rise (SLR) such that habitation will eventually become infeasible or prohibitively expensive for most communities in its current form.
