ENUMERATION OF MEANDERS AND MASUR–VEECH VOLUMES [PDF]
A meander is a topological configuration of a line and a simple closed curve in the plane (or a pair of simple closed curves on the 2-sphere) intersecting transversally. Meanders can be traced back to H.

Cutting Degree of Meanders [PDF]
We study the cutting problems of meanders using 2-Motzkin words. These words uniquely define elevated peakless Motzkin paths, which under specific conditions correspond to meanders. A procedure for the determination of the set of meanders with a given sequence of cutting degrees, or with a given cutting degree, is presented by using proper conditions.

Plane and projective meanders [PDF]
The authors study the combinatorial properties of meanders which are non self-intersecting curves on the Euclidean and projective planes. Arithmetic and asymptotic properties of meandric numbers and various other theoretical and numerical results are presented. Connections with other domains of mathematics are discussed.

Dimensions of fluvial-tidal meanders: Are they disproportionally large? [PDF]
Many of the world’s major river systems seemingly have one or a few disproportionally large meanders, with tight bends, in the fluvial-tidal transition (e.g., the Thames in the UK, and the Salmon River in Canada).

Meander Designer: Automatically Generating Meander Channel Designs [PDF]
Microfluidics continues to bring innovation to the life sciences. It stimulates progress by enabling new ways of research in biology, chemistry, and biotechnology. However, when designing a microfluidic device, designers have to conduct many tasks by hand—resulting in labor-intensive processes.

Meanders: exact asymptotics [PDF]
We conjecture that meanders are governed by the gravitational version of a c=-4 two-dimensional conformal field theory, allowing for exact predictions for the meander configuration exponent α=\sqrt{29}(\sqrt{29}+\sqrt{5})/12, and the semi-meander exponent {\barα}=1+\sqrt{11}(\sqrt{29}+\sqrt{5})/24. This result follows from an interpretation of meanders

Determination of Meander Pattern in Gharehsou River Using Sinuosity Coefficients and Central Angle in Anzab-Samian Bridge reach [PDF]
Most of residential areas, population centers, and agricultural lands are located along the rivers and especially on the river terrace, which are affected by river dynamics, discharge changes, and flood hazards, bed fluctuations and meander variations ...

An Observation-Based Study of Gulf Stream Meander Kinematics Offshore of Cape Hatteras
Gulf Stream (GS) meander structure and propagation offshore of Cape Hatteras are investigated by integrating current measurements from a bottom-moored Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) with high-frequency radar (HFR) surface current measurements ...

Equilibration of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current by standing meanders [PDF]
The insensitivity of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC)’s prominent isopycnal slope to changes in wind stress is thought to stem from the action of mesoscale eddies that counterbalance the wind-driven Ekman overturning—a framework verified in ...

In baroclinic fronts, jets and eddies, potential vorticity, P = (V + f) / D, connects horizontal motions of planetary vorticity, f, and relative vorticity, V, to vertical transport through increases and decreases of the water column height, D.
