Dynamic allometry in coastal overwash morphology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Allometry refers to a physical principle in which geometric (and/or metabolic) characteristics of an object or organism are correlated to its size. Allometric scaling relationships typically manifest as power laws.

Reduction of deltaic channel mobility by tidal action under rising relative sea level [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
As Holocene river deltas continue to experience sea-level rise, sediment carried by distributary channels counteracts delta-plain drowning. Many deltas worldwide are subject to tidal action, which strongly affects the morphology of distributary channels ...

Coastal Morphodynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Every year, a number of new forest pathosystems are discovered as the result of introduction of alien pathogens, host shifts and jumps, hybridization and recombination among pathogens, etc. Disease outbreaks may also be favored by climate change and forest management.

Cross-Shore Suspended Sediment Transport in Relation to Topographic Changes in the Intertidal Zone of a Macro-Tidal Beach (Mariakerke, Belgium)

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
Sediment transport is a key element in intertidal beach morphodynamics, but measurements of sediment transport are often unreliable. The aim of this study is to quantify and investigate cross-shore sediment transport and the resulting topographic changes

Comparing Aggradation, Superelevation, and Avulsion Frequency of Submarine and Fluvial Channels

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Constraining the avulsion dynamics of rivers and submarine channels is essential for predicting the distribution of sediment, organic matter, and pollutants in alluvial, deltaic, and submarine settings.

Simple assessment of spatio-temporal evolution of salt marshes ecological services [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A number of previous research studies have addressed the enormous role played by biodiversity and ecosystems in human well-being and have placed particular emphasis on the consequences of the reduction or loss of these services. A handful of studies have

Profiling cellular morphodynamics by spatiotemporal spectrum decomposition. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2018
Cellular morphology and associated morphodynamics are widely used for qualitative and quantitative assessments of cell state. Here we implement a framework to profile cellular morphodynamics based on an adaptive decomposition of local cell boundary ...

A parameterization of flow separation over subaqueous dunes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Flow separation plays a key role in the development of dunes, and modeling the complicated flow behavior inside the flow separation zone requires much computational effort.
