Fe(II)/Chlorine‐Driven Advanced Oxidation of Textile Dyes in a Tubular Microreactor: Continuous‐Flow Performance and Matrix Effects

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Fe(II)/chlorine system has emerged as a promising advanced oxidation technology for water treatment, yet its application in continuous‐flow systems remains unexplored. This study presents the first comprehensive investigation of the Fe(II)/chlorine process in a tubular microreactor, a setup that significantly enhances mass transfer and ...

Functional morphology of the pharyngeal teeth of the ocean sunfish, Mola mola

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Many fish use a set of pharyngeal jaws in their throat to aid in prey capture and processing, particularly of large or complex prey. In this study—combining dissection, CT scanning, histology, and performance testing—we demonstrate a novel use of pharyngeal teeth in the ocean sunfish (Mola mola), a species for which pharyngeal jaw anatomy had ...

Numerical investigation of the influence of coastal structure removal on sand spit morphology

Applied Ocean Research
The application of hard engineering solutions in coastal protection has been controversial because of their potential environmental impacts. Selective removal of intrusive coastal structures offers an alternative to address the coastal erosion problem ...

Lagrangian study of transport and mixing in a mesoscale eddy street

, 2011
We use dynamical systems approach and Lagrangian tools to study surface transport and mixing of water masses in a selected coastal region of the Japan Sea with moving mesoscale eddies associated with the Primorskoye Current.

Predicting ecology and hearing sensitivities in Parapontoporia—An extinct long‐snouted dolphin

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Analyses of the cetacean (whale and dolphin) inner ear provide glimpses into the ecology and evolution of extinct and extant groups. The paleoecology of the long‐snouted odontocete (toothed whale) group, Parapontoporia, is primarily marine with its depositional context also suggesting freshwater tolerance.

Residential Docks and Piers: Inventory of laws, regulations, and policies for the New England region [PDF]

, 2006
While the homes threatened by erosion and the developer illegally filling in marshlands are the projects that make the headlines, for many state regulatory programs, it’s the residential docks and piers that take up the most time. When is a dock too long?

Functional models from limited data: A parametric and multimodal approach to anatomy and 3D kinematics of feeding in basking sharks (Cetorhinus maximus)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Basking sharks, Cetorhinus maximus (Gunnerus, Brugden [Squalus maximus], Det Kongelige Norske Videnskabers Selskabs Skrifter, 1765, vol. 3, pp. 33–49), feed by gaping their mouths and gill slits, greatly reorienting their cranial skeletons to filter food from water.

Semicircular Coastal Defence Structures: Impact of Gap Spacing on Shoreline Dynamics during Storm Events

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Coastal erosion poses significant challenges to shoreline management, exacerbated by rising sea levels and changing climate patterns. This study investigates the influence of gap spacing between semicircular coastal defence structures on shoreline ...

Early Pliocene Varanus (Squamata, Varanidae) remains from Megalo Emvolon, Thessaloniki, Greece

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
The article describes new cranial and postcranial varanid material from Megalo Emvolon Lower Pliocene vertebrate fossil site near Thessaloniki. The fossils, likely representing a single individual, are referred to Varanus cf. marathonensis. Abstract This study describes new fossil varanid material from a recently discovered fossil spot (MVL site) at ...
