COASTAL ENGINEERING EDUCATION AND COASTAL MODELS
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2012 This paper discusses how coastal engineers are educated and how that must be changed in order to be able to meet the future demands for coastal engineers. It also addresses the use of coastal models as a vital tool to demonstrate concepts and processes that are not innately familiar to the students.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A biomimetic multi‐layer hygroscopic membrane redistributes salt toward an air‐accessible nanofiber interface, enabling rapid interfacial deliquescence while a brush‐like hydrogel promotes efficient liquid transport and storage. By decoupling vapor capture from bulk water storage, the membrane achieves fast sorption kinetics and enables rapid‐cycling ...

Flooding‐Driven Greenhouse Gas Emissions From Global Upland Croplands
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Temporary flooding of upland croplands releases nitrous oxide, carbon dioxide, and methane. Field measurements combined with a global literature synthesis yield a global estimate of 63.3 teragrams of carbon dioxide equivalent per year for diffusive emissions from flooded upland croplands.

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.Direct seawater electrolysis using anion exchange membranes is emerging as a promising route for sustainable hydrogen production. This review summarizes multiscale design strategies from seawater chemistry and OER–ClER selectivity to catalysts, membranes, MEAs, cells, stacks, and system integration, providing a roadmap toward selective, durable, and ...

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper examines the relationship between participation in the EU Rural Development Program and the economic performance of Italian olive farms using a finite‐mixture model with inverse‐probability‐weighted regression adjustment. Based on 2010–2022 FADN panel data, it estimates heterogeneous treatment effects while correcting for selection ...

Drivers of CO2-carbonate system variability in the coastal ocean south of Honolulu, Hawai’i
Frontiers in Marine ScienceThis study examines carbonate chemistry variability from 2008 to 2021 in subtropical coastal waters adjacent to Honolulu, Hawai’i. We use surface seawater carbon dioxide partial pressure (pCO2sw) measurements obtained every three hours from two buoys ...

Applied Economic Perspectives and Policy, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The USDA's Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) delivers environmental benefits to society by enrolling cropland and grasslands to reestablish or safeguard long‐term vegetative cover. In recent years, the CRP has dramatically increased grassland enrollment while cropland enrollment has been in steady decline. This paper uses descriptive analysis,

The RUNE Experiment—A Database of Remote-Sensing Observations of Near-Shore Winds
Remote Sensing, 2016 We present a comprehensive database of near-shore wind observations that were carried out during the experimental campaign of the RUNE project. RUNE aims at reducing the uncertainty of the near-shore wind resource estimates from model outputs by using ...

COASTAL PLANNING AND THE EVALUATION OF COASTAL STRUCTURES IN TERMS OF SUSTAINABILITY
Proceedings of International Structural Engineering and Construction, 2016 Coasts are cross-sections of the water and land environments, for thousands of years they formed under the factors of climate, geological, geomorphological, topographic and hydraulic and it has reached a natural balance. But increasingly this natural balance is disrupted due to human impact.
