Using statistical and machine learning approaches to describe estuarine tidal dynamics
Journal of HydroinformaticsEstuaries are ecologically valuable regions where tidal forces move large volumes of water. To understand the ongoing physical processes in such dynamic systems, a series of estuarine monitoring stations is required.

Designing a Framework for the Estuarine Monitoring System
EPiC Series in Engineering, 2018 Where the physical and environmental characteristics of the coast and estuary change dramatically and complicatedly due to the multiple controlling sources as like as the tide, wave, river discharge, in order to collect the environmental data effectively and reliably, the locations of monitoring should be optimally determined with the standardized ...

Geological Journal, EarlyView.This study reports the exceptional preservation of the Eocene freshwater bivalve Batissa sitakaraensis from Hokkaido, Japan. Multimodal analyses reveal that both the aragonitic shell mineralogy and the delicate organic periostracum retain their original structural and chemical characteristics after millions of years.

Microplastic Hotspots on a Tropical Estuarine-Bay System
Ocean and Coastal ResearchThe accumulation and export of microplastics are associated with growing negative socio-environmentalimpacts, which are intensified in coastal and estuarine areas. The Santos Estuarine System is the mostpopulous estuarine region and the largest seaport in Brazil, where the movement and accumulation of microplasticsis an integrated effect of diverse ...

Morphological changes of the Santos Estuary (Brazil) from 1876 to 2014
Journal of the Geological Survey of BrazilThe ability to understand the morphology of estuaries associated with temporal evolution is essential for coastal management, channel navigability, and the environment. In this study, we analyze the morphological evolution of the Santos Estuarine System
