This study indicates that Hester Marsh, a restored site successfully maintains surface elevation, resulting in reduced surface inundation. The low‐lying Yampah Marsh, a reference site, is likely to be inundated due to future sea level rise (SLR) when the highest tides arrive, while a higher percentage of Hester Marsh would retain marsh vegetation in ...

This study focuses on the fabrication of manganese‐infused high entropy oxides (HEOs) for lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries. Incorporating a HEO‐coated Celgard separator at a low material loading (~0.23 mg cm−2), it decreases the HEO content in sulfur composite cathodes, enhancing the catalytic conversion of lithium polysulfides.

Seasonal variation in bay‐marsh sediment exchange through a back‐barrier salt marsh tidal creek
Abstract Salt marsh resilience to sea‐level rise largely depends on the balance of sediment exchanges with surrounding bays. In this study, we investigate mechanisms that determine residual sediment fluxes using continuous measurements of bay‐marsh sediment exchange conducted in a tidal creek spanning 13 months (753 tidal cycles) in an intertidal marsh

CONTESTED GOOD CITY STORIES FROM A NORTH CHENNAI LITTORAL
Abstract This article investigates the wilful destruction of Ennore Creek, a littoral wetland system in north Chennai, Tamil Nadu, by a series of shifting statist good city imaginaries expressed in plans, research reports, environmental impact assessments, government orders and court judgements.

Improvement of the digestion of cattle slurry via the process of co-digestion
The use of maize (Zea mays) as a co-substrate with cattle slurry for the production of biogas was investigated in detail by running several long term digestion trials under different operational conditions in laboratory scale semi-continuous digesters ...

Coastal reclamation reshapes both soils and vegetation, yet their coupled trajectories remain poorly understood. Here we investigated soil–vegetation co-evolution across a 15-year chronosequence on Hengsha Island in the Yangtze River estuary.

Field Study on the Vacuum Preloading of Dredged Slurry with Wheat Straw Drainage
In this paper, a new shallow reinforcement technique for dredged fill was proposed. In which wheat straw was used as vertical and horizontal drains in lieu of materials applied in the traditional vacuum preloading method. This was not only helpful to avoid permanent environmental damage caused by prefabricated vertical drains but also helpful to ...

Small-Strain Dynamic Behaviours of Reconstituted Soft Clay Under Different Initial Water Contents
High-water-content dredged slurry from port dredging requires geotechnical improvement via drainage and consolidation. The small-strain dynamic properties (shear stiffness, damping characteristics) of reconstituted and consolidated clays are critical to ...

Radio-frequency slurry-density measurement for dredging pipelines
Hydraulic dredgers make use of a density meter to measure the instantaneous density in the slurry transport pipeline, primarily for process control and production calculation. the current ‘golden’ standard for slurry density measurement is the radioactive density meter. It is based on a slurry density-dependent absorption of gamma radiation.
