Shelf-slope exchanges associated with a steep submarine canyon off Calvi (Corsica, NW Mediterranean Sea): A modelling approach [PDF]

, 2001
peer reviewedA three-dimensional, unsteady, nonlinear, high-resolution model is used to investigate the impact of the Calvi Canyon (NW Corsica) steep topography on the shelf-slope exchanges as well as on the circulation in the Calvi Bay in homogeneous ...

Tributary‐scale oyster reef restoration in Harris Creek, Maryland: lessons from a decade of planning, implementing, and monitoring

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction In response to the decline of eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) populations in Chesapeake Bay, a large‐scale restoration initiative was launched in Harris Creek, Maryland, in 2011. This effort marked a shift from fragmented projects toward a coordinated, sanctuary‐based approach to oyster restoration.

Prediction of salinity intrusion in Danshuei estuarine system

, 2008
The main parameters that affect the flow conditions and intrusion of salt water in an estuary system are tides and the seasonal variation of water discharge.

Numerical Modeling Tools Applied to Estuarine and Coastal Hydrodynamics: A User Perspective

, 2020
Estuarine and coastal areas have been intensively studied given their complexity, ecological, and societal value and the importance of their ecosystem services. Estuarine and coastal management must be based on a sound characterization of these areas, which is achievable complementing the comprehensive field measurements with numerical models solutions.

Sponges survive and develop infaunal snapping shrimp communities when transplanted immediately after clonal propagation: implications for restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Sponges historically dominated the heterotrophic biomass of Florida Bay's hard‐bottom habitat, providing crucial ecosystem services including shelter for soniferous shrimp that contribute to the marine soundscape. The loss of the sponge communities has inspired restoration efforts using in‐water nurseries for vegetative ...

Observations and modelling of the variability of the Solent-Southampton Water estuarine system

, 2008
Understanding the effect of physical forcing on estuarine functioning is of major importance to determine the rate of exchange of water, sediments, pollutants and nutrients between the continent and the ocean.

Estuarine tidal response to sea level rise: The significance of entrance restriction

Estuarine environments, as dynamic low-lying transition zones between rivers and the open sea, are vulnerable to sea level rise (SLR). To evaluate the potential impacts of SLR on estuarine responses, it is necessary to examine the altered tidal dynamics,

Background levels of heavy metals in surficial sediments of the Gulf of Lions (NW Mediterranean): An approach based on 133Cs normalization and lead isotope measurements [PDF]

, 2005
This paper presents an attempt to reach natural background levels of heavy metals in surficial sediments of the Gulf of Lions(NW Mediterranean). To correct for the grain-size effect, normalization procedures based on a clay mineral indicator element are ...

Hydrodynamic Model Study of the Ria de Pontevedra Under Estuarine Conditions

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2002
The Ria de Pontevedra is one of the Galician Rias Baixas, partially mixed estuaries on the north-west coast of the Iberian peninsula. The hydrodynamics of the rias is far from being fully understood. In this application, the hydrodynamics of the Ria de Pontevedra is studied by means of a 3-D baroclinic model.
