Assimilation of Velocity Data for Tidal Hydrodynamics Model Calibration

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Assessing tidal stream energy resource typically involves the application of numerical models calibrated against sparse Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) data. This introduces significant challenges in energetic sites which are prone to significant spatiotemporal variations, like the Pentland Firth, Scotland, which is home to the world ...

Introducing the Coincidence Index: A Novel Diagnostic and Production‐Based Framework for Water Body Interaction Analysis and Its Application to Study the Interaction of River Plumes

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Quantifying interactions between distinct water bodies is critical yet challenging for understanding ocean and estuarine dynamics. We introduce the coincidence index (CI), defined as the product of two arbitrary tracers (a $a$, b $b$), to diagnose where two water masses coexist and mix.

Análise hidrodinâmica do estuário do rio Lima, Portugal, a partir de simulação numérica

Revista Ambiente & Água, 2017
A complexidade que envolve a gestão sustentável das zonas costeiras, associada a sua relevância econômica e sócioambiental, tem como pré-requesito o conhecimento do padrão hidrodinâmico dos estuários, que é influenciado diretamente pelas vazões típicas e

RNSTM: A Network‐Link Approach to Streamflow Temperature Modeling

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT This work presents the development and validation of the River Network Streamflow Temperature Model (RNSTM), which solves the energy balance equations at the air‐water interface within the channels to estimate their temperature. RNSTM considers solar radiation, net longwave radiation, evaporative heat flux, and convective heat transfer ...

NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF UJONG SEUDEUN LAND SEPARATION CAUSED BY THE 2004 INDIAN OCEAN TSUNAMI, ACEH-INDONESIA [PDF]

Science of Tsunami Hazards, 2015
The Aceh province in Indonesia, located around the Sumatra subduction area, was one of the worst hit areas with respect to damage from the impact of the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. A 9.15 Mw earthquake triggered the tsunami.

Potential Impacts of Low Flows on Fish Foodscapes and Production in a Braided River

River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 1366-1382, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Changes in river discharge affect the physical composition and connectivity of habitats which, in turn, may shape the spatial distribution of fish food abundance, accessibility and quality—the ‘foodscape’—of river ecosystems. However, the influence of river flows on fish foodscapes has received very little attention from scientists. We studied

Maturation of River‐Dominated Delta Tops: The Channelized Delta Model

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract We present a novel, laterally averaged model of delta growth, the channelized delta model, in which delta top dynamics are described in terms of channelized (lumped channel) and non‐channelized areas. The maturation level of the lumped channel is defined by a shape factor that dictates flow partitioning between channelized and non‐channelized ...

A 2D Tide-Averaged Model for the Long-Term Evolution of an Idealized Tidal Basin-Inlet-Delta System

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2018
We present a model for the morphodynamics of tidal basin-inlet-delta systems at the centennial time scales. Tidal flow is calculated through a friction dominated model, with a semi-empirical correction to account for the advection of momentum.

Assessing Drivers of Alongshore Variation in Historical Coastal Dune Evolution: A Field and Model‐Based Approach

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract The protective services provided by coastal foredunes vary spatially due to alongshore differences in dune morphology and hydrodynamic forcing. This study aims to quantify the drivers of alongshore variability of dune evolution across spatial (40‐km) and temporal (multi‐decadal) scales. The alongshore variability in dune evolution is extracted

Free Bars in Straight Channels: Pattern Formation far Beyond Criticality

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Bar formation plays a central role in river morphodynamics and has been extensively studied by means of analytical theories, flume experiments and numerical simulations. In this study, we investigate strongly nonlinear mode competition and free bar dynamics using a spectral numerical model. Starting from near‐flat random bed initial conditions,
