The effect of migrating dune forms on the flow field of an alluvial river [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The bed of an alluvial river is highly susceptible to changes during the course of its existence. Besides variations of the large scale topography and plan form of the river, smaller scale dune forms can be observed. These recurring dune forms migrate on

Modelling a Dune Field

open access: yes, 2002
We present a model to describe the collective motion of barchan dunes in a field. Our model is able to reproduce the observation that a typical dune stays confined within a stripe.

Thermodynamic and microphysical properties of summertime marine fog observed from Sable Island

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Atmospheric profiling and near‐surface fog and visibility measurements revealed synoptic‐scale forcing as the dominant factor in fog formation over Sable Island, with deep fog layers under low‐pressure systems and shallow fog layers under high‐pressure systems.

Luminescence Dating of Beach Dunes and Fluvial Sediments, Nayarit, Mexico [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The Pacific coast of the state of Nayarit, Mexico, is dominated by extensive sand dune systems and lagoons. 16 samples from three transects through dunes near the town of Santa Cruz were collected to establish ages of the beach dune ridges and establish ...

Suggestions for unifying the parametrizations of turbulent orographic form drag, mountain wave drag, and flow blocking

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
A theory for the interaction between a boundary layer and a low mountain is used to provide estimates of the turbulent orographic form drag, upward‐propagating mountain gravity‐wave drag, and trapped lee‐wave drag (case shown in the figure). After reviewing briefly how these processes are represented in weather and climate models, we propose a ...

Stochastics of bedform dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Often river dunes are considered as regular bed patterns, with a mean dune height and a mean dune length. In reality however, river dunes are threedimensional and irregular features that cannot be fully described by their mean values.

A simple model for a transverse dune field

open access: yes, 2006
We present a simple one-dimensional model to describe the evolution of a transverse dune field. The model is characterized by the distances between the dunes and their heights, which determine the inter-dune sand flux.

A new method to identify and explain sources of precipitation modification, illustrated for the western Netherlands

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study develops a method to identify the source areas of precipitation events, as illustrated for the western part of the Netherlands. Radar‐based precipitation data are traced back to their source areas and machine‐learning techniques are used to identify hypothesized causes: urban heat, surface roughness, and air pollution. We find that urban and

Sensitivities to charged-current nonstandard neutrino interactions at DUNE

open access: yes, 2017
We investigate the effects of charged-current (CC) nonstandard neutrino interactions (NSIs) at the source and at the detector in the simulated data for the planned Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE), while neglecting the neutral-current NSIs at ...

Survey on AI‐Enabled Computer Vision Technologies and Applications for Space Robotic Missions

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This survey provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements and challenges in Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐enabled computer vision (CV) techniques for space robotic missions, spanning critical phases such as Entry, Descent, and Landing (EDL), orbital operations, and planetary surface exploration.
