CoRR, 2014 In this paper we present the new DUNE-ALUGrid module. This module contains a major overhaul of the sources from the ALUgrid library and the binding to the DUNE software framework. The main changes include user defined load balancing, parallel grid construction, and an redesign of the 2d grid which can now also be used for parallel computations.

Velocity distribution of nonuniform flow on the stoss side over dunes
Shui kexue jinzhan, 2015 In order to further reveal the flow characteristics over dunes and thus improve the calculation accuracy of velocity,the time-mean velocity profile was analyzed both experimentally and theoretically,and the instantaneous velocities were measured over two

Sand Seas and Dune Fields of Egypt
Geosciences, 2020 The article reviews the state of knowledge about distribution, sizes, dynamics, and ages of all sand seas (N = 6) and dune fields (N = 10) in Egypt (1,001,450 km2). However, chronological data (Optically Stimulated Luminescence, Thermoluminescence), used

Evidence of Coastal Changes in the West Coast of Naxos Island, Cyclades, Greece
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Coastal lagoons and dunes are of great ecological importance, not only for providing habitats for rare flora and fauna, but also for protecting coastal areas from rising sea levels and storms, etc.

Seasonal Variation of Catenary-Bead Dunes in the Yangtze River Estuary: Causes and Implications
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Low-angle lee-side slopes of dunes are commonly developed on the world’s riverbeds, and dune migration associated with sediment transport exert a major influence on riverine processes.

Mechanisms of Dune Growth and Decay in Rivers
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 The mechanisms responsible for dune growth and decay remain a major unknown in river dynamics. Two theories have been supported by experiments and numerical models. A hydrodynamic explanation suggests that growth and decay occur due to phase lags between

Perspectives on conservation grazing: The need for monitoring and communication
Ecological Solutions and EvidenceConservation grazing is widely used to manage open ecosystems, but inconsistent definitions and inadequate reporting of grazing patterns hinder effective communication among researchers, practitioners and policymakers, limiting the understanding and ...
