Profile analyses in front of the breakwater in Ensenada, B.C.

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 1995
Four bathymetric surveys were conducted in front of the breakwater in Ensenada, B.C., during 1990 and 1991. Five profiles were projected perpendicular to the structure for each survey.

Analysis of Permeable Breakwaters

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1986, 1986
This paper discusses the characteristics of hydraulic and water exchange due to the wave action against vertical slit-type breakwaters. The theoretical solution of the reflection and the transmission coefficients for the breakwater models is compared with the experimental results.

Computational fluid dynamics analysis of cylindrical floating breakwater towards reduction of sediment transport

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Engineering and Sciences, 2017
Floating breakwater becomes an alternative and reliable coastal area protection as it is cheaper in production cost as compared to conventional bottom-fixed breakwater.

Wave Trapping by Breakwaters

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1986, 1986
The refraction of water waves around the heads of breakwaters can lead to large wave heights along the sheltered side of the structure. These waves are shown to be edge waves, trapped on the breakwater, based on the comparison of laboratory data and linear edge wave theory.

Intact coastal nursery rearing amid climate‐driven phenological shifts in threatened salmon

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Literature linking phenology to climate has proliferated in recent decades and shows that climate change has reorganized seasonal opportunities worldwide. However, this literature often quantifies changes in point measures of timing (e.g., beginnings and peaks) without context about duration (e.g., rearing season length) or performance (e.g ...

Investigating the Harbour Basin Tranquillity in the Genaveh Port Development Plan

open access: yesPolish Maritime Research, 2023
The Genaveh commercial port was placed on the agenda of the Iranian PMO (ports and maritime organization) to consider economic, commercial and residential development in Bushehr province and specifically in Genaveh city.

DESIGN OF AN OVERTOPPING BREAKWATER

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 1980
The Maritime Services Board of New South Wales, Australia, is constructing a major new port facility on the northern foreshores of Botany Bay. A principal part of this project has been the construction of a large armoured revetment from the northern shores. The entrance to Botany Bay faces southeast and it is from this direction that a large proportion

Divergent exploratory‐avoidant behavioural strategies may drive niche differentiation in juvenile Antarctic fishes

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract We used an ecological niche theory framework integrating physiological and behavioural ecology to understand interspecific differentiation of juveniles of four Antarctic fishes: Trematomus bernacchii, Trematomus pennellii, Trematomus nicolai and Pagothenia borchgrevinki.

Development of a critical structure state alarm system based on the instrumentation of the Botafoc breakwater nº 8 caisson [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Balearic Port Authority has developed an instrumentation system for the #8 caisson of the Botafoc breakwater that integrates 12 pressure sensors located at three surfaces, two in contact with the sea water and another with the bottom.

Impact of light pollution on fishes: Mechanisms and ecological consequences

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The increasing prevalence of artificial light at night (ALAN) is of growing ecological concern. By altering natural light regimes, ALAN affects the behaviour, physiology and life‐history of organisms. While research has largely focused on terrestrial ecosystems, aquatic ecosystems are increasingly exposed.
