Observation of Rapid Seabed Erosion Near Closure Depth During a Storm Period at Hujeong Beach, South Korea

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
We report extraordinary seabed erosion that occurred at a depth of ~8.3 m at Hujeong Beach, South Korea. The seabed was eroded for 0.7 m during a ~2.3‐day period under storm conditions. The maximum significant wave height was ~3.8 m, which was unexpected

The Teleodynamics of Language, Culture, Technology and Science (LCT&S)

Information, 2013
Logan [1] in his book The Extended Mind developed the hypothesis that language, culture, technology and science can be treated as organisms that evolve and reproduce themselves.

Observing and Predicting Coastal Erosion at the Langue de Barbarie Sand Spit around Saint Louis (Senegal, West Africa) through Satellite-Derived Digital Elevation Model and Shoreline

Remote Sensing, 2021
Coastal erosion at Saint Louis in Senegal is affecting the local population that consists of primarily fishermen communities in their housing and their access to the sea.

The role of discharge variability in determining alluvial stratigraphy [PDF]

, 2015
We illustrate the potential for using physics-based modeling to link alluvial stratigraphy to large river morphology and dynamics. Model simulations, validated using ground penetrating radar data from the Río Paraná, Argentina, demonstrate a strong ...

Performance Evaluation of Wave Input Reduction Techniques for Modeling Inter-Annual Sandbar Dynamics

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
In process-based numerical models, reducing the amount of input parameters, known as input reduction (IR), is often required to reduce the computational effort of these models and to enable long-term, ensemble predictions.

Mitochondrial morphodynamics alteration induced by influenza virus infection as a new antiviral strategy.

PLoS Pathogens, 2021
Influenza virus infections are major public health threats due to their high rates of morbidity and mortality. Upon influenza virus entry, host cells experience modifications of endomembranes, including those used for virus trafficking and replication ...

Remotely Sensed Analysis of Channel Bar Morphodynamics in the Middle Yangtze River in Response to a Major Monsoon Flood in 2002

Remote Sensing, 2018
Channel bars are a major depositional feature in channels, and are considered as an important part of the morphodynamics of an alluvial river. The long-term morphodynamics of bars have been intensively investigated.

Morphodynamics of phyllotaxis

The International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2006
A morphodynamic model for phyllotaxis based upon an axiomatic approach is presented. We show that the helical forms of alternate phyllotaxis can be derived from the assumption of the rudiment's growth and movement on the cylindrical embryo surface in the absence of a longitudinal displacement.

Autocyclic Secondary Channels Stabilize Deltaic Islands Undergoing Relative Sea Level Rise

Geophysical Research Letters, 2022
Understanding what sets the size and stability of deltaic islands is critical for predicting how deltas will respond to sea level rise. Models of overbank sedimentation produce an exponentially decaying sedimentation profile, seemingly incompatible with ...

Response of river-dominated delta channel networks to permanent changes in river discharge [PDF]

, 2010
Using numerical experiments, we investigate how river-dominated delta channel networks are likely to respond to changes in river discharge predicted to occur over the next century as a result of environmental change.
