Polystyrene Spherules in Coastal Waters
Science, 1972Polystyrene spherules averaging 0.5 millimeter in diameter (range 0.1 to 2 millimeters) are abundant in the coastal waters of southern New England. Two types are present, a crystalline (clear) form and a white, opaque form with pigmentation resulting from a diene rubber.

Eutrophication of Dutch coastal waters
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1975Abstract The concentrations of phosphorus and nitrogen compounds in the river Rhine have increased by a factor of about 7 since 1932; in recent years the rate of increase for P has been higher than for N. The concentration of reactive silicate, which is low in summer, has remained essentially constant. Because in the Southern Bight of

Above-water radiometry in shallow coastal waters
Applied Optics, 2004Above- and in-water radiometric data were collected from two coastal platforms: a small boat and an oceanographic tower. The above-water data were processed with and without a correction for bidirectional effects (Q02 and S95, respectively). An intercomparison of water-leaving radiances over a wide range of environmental conditions showed (a) total ...

A Comparison of Water Quality Indices for Coastal Water
Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part A, 2003The present article discusses and compares five different water quality indices, viz arithmetic water quality index, multiplicative water quality index, unweighted arithmetic water quality index, unweighted multiplicative water quality index, and Harkin's water quality index, which were considered for characterizing the coastal water quality at the ...

Abstract Accidents involving water are common, and drowning is the third leading cause of accidental death worldwide. Shorelines are particularly hazardous (e.g. because of unexpected waves, slippery banks, or rip currents) and attempts to retrieve people who have become accidentally immersed can place rescuers at risk.

Applications of Numerical Simulation of Water Waves in Coastal Waters and Coastal Engineering
2020This book focuses on various unsteady gravity flows with a free surface in nature and engineering, i.e., water waves, and introduces the theories, methodologies, and case studies on numerical simulation. This chapter includes cases of numerical wave modeling in coastal regions of China, and a case of numerical prediction of thirty-year shoreline ...

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series A. Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1962
Abstract The basic feature of an estuarine circulation is a seaward flow of lower salinity water in the upper layer and an upstream flow of higher salinity below. The intensity of the circulation and its effect on the distribution of salinity and other properties of the water depend on the degree of turbulent mixing, which in turn is ...

This chapter introduces the environmental consequences of the enrichment of marine waters by plant nutrients, particularly nitrogen, together with the principal concepts needed to understand it and the methods used to study it. It reviews the evidence implicating nitrogen in the fouling of marine waters and presents several case studies of large marine

Journal of Conflict Resolution, 1985
In the last decade, the extension of fishing jurisdictions and the expansion of off-shore drilling have given rise to many new maritime disputes between neighboring countries seeking to delimit exclusive economic zones. Because the record of negotiated boundary treaties has been augmented case by case, there has been only partial progress in ...
