Design of a Facility for Tsunami Run up Generation to Study Tsunami and Seawall Interaction

open access: yesJournal of the Civil Engineering Forum, 2019
Experimental researches on the tsunami in the laboratory have been conducted using various methods. The use and techniques of tsunami wave generator depend on the objective of the tsunami observation to be conducted. When the objective is the scouring at

Increased energetic cost of movement reduces reproductive output in zebrafish at different temperatures and water flow rates

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Locomotion consumes a large proportion of individual energy budgets and may impose energetic constraints on other fitness‐related traits particularly under variable environmental conditions.

Artificial light at night and invasive signal crayfish alter aquatic‐terrestrial food webs

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Resource flows across aquatic‐terrestrial boundaries are increasingly affected by multiple stressors, such as artificial light at night (ALAN) and aquatic invasive species, which can alter the availability of resources for consumers.

Black mangrove growth and root architecture in recycled glass sand: testing a new substrate for coastal restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
As coastal regions experience accelerating land loss, artificial substrates may be useful in restoration efforts to replenish sediment and facilitate plant colonization. Recycled glass sand is a potential artificial substrate for marsh building due to its sustainability, availability, and similarity to natural substrates.

Granulometric characterization of sediments transported by surface runoff generated by moving storms [PDF]

open access: yesNonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2008
Due to the combined effect of wind and rain, the importance of storm movement to surface flow has long been recognized, at scales ranging from headwater scales to large basins.

Urban River Water Level Increase Through Plastic Waste Accumulation at a Rack Structure

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Plastic debris in water systems is a major challenge for our ecosystem, because it is extremely persistent in the environment. Apart from the importance of reducing the amount of plastic entering the ocean, clearing the rivers from debris is important ...

On modeling the variability of bedform dimensions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
: Bedforms are irregular features that cannot easily be described by mean values. The variations in the geometric dimensions affect the bed roughness, and they are important in the modeling of vertical sorting and in modeling the thickness of cross ...
