EQUILIBRIUM PROFILES OF MODEL BEACHES
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1970 The investigation reported herein covers two aspects of equilibrium beach profiles, namely, (a) the criterion governing their type and (b) their reflection characteristics The problems are first analysed from dimensional considerations and then studied experimentally in laboratory wave flumes using different sizes of quartz, ground walnut shell and ...

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.Planned harvesting and processing of marine macroalgae could meet future global food needs and mitigate fuel‐originated carbon dioxide responsible for climate change. Microalgal foods are nutritious and safe. The utilization of macroalgae would avoid environmental problems arising from the release of overgrowing macroalgae caused by heatwaves, which ...

Scale Relations for Equilibrium Beach Profiles
Coastal Engineering 1978, 1978 There are many practical problems related to coastal engineering, which may be solved by using movable bed scale models of the coastal zone. The scale model must obey the laws of sediment transport in order to obtain satisfactory results. However, sediment transport in the coastal zones is so complex that the mechanism is not fully understood.

Psychology &Marketing, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This study introduces the Paradox of Escapism, exploring how the act of escaping reality can evolve from a short‐term avoidance strategy to a mechanism for self‐regulation and enhanced life satisfaction. Employing five rigorous, multimethod investigations, including qualitative interviews and sentiment analysis (Study 1), Structural Equation ...

Scaling turbulence drives the general circulation
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.The NOAA Gulfstream SP4, which deployed the GPS dropsondes over the NE Pacific Ocean as part of the Winter Storms Project during the January–March periods of 2004, 2005 and 2006. Abstract Statistical multifractal analysis of airborne and dropsonde observations is used to show that persistence of velocity after molecular collisions breaks the continuous
