Strength of the grass sod on dikes during wave overtopping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This thesis focuses on the erosion of the grass sod during overtopping wave volumes. Several tests have been performed in the last few years with the wave overtopping simulator.

Distribution of individual wave overtopping volumes at rubble mound seawalls

open access: yes, 2022
For a safe design of a rubble mound seawall, overtopping characteristics such as the mean overtopping discharge (q) and the maximum individual overtopping volume (Vmax) should be limited.

Numerical Investigation of Wave Overtopping in Impermeable Seawalls Coated with Sand-Based Porous Media [PDF]

open access: yesNumerical Methods in Civil Engineering
A seawall's structural integrity can be damaged by wave overtopping. To mitigate wave overtopping, this study investigates the effectiveness of incorporating a porous layer into impermeable seawalls.

1175. Madeirina macrorhiza (Lowe ex Hooker) D. J. Crawford, M. Seq., Mort & J. K. Kelly, gen. nov. et comb. nov.

open access: yesCurtis's Botanical Magazine, EarlyView.
Summary Tolpis Adanson is a genus of some 15 species distributed primarily in the Macaronesian archipelagos of the Azores, Canary Islands, Madeira, and Cape Verde Islands. A phylogenomic study resolved Tolpis as monophyletic with the Madeiran endemic species Tolpis macrorhiza sister to the remainder of the genus.

COMPARISON OF NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS FOR OVERTOPPING DISCHARGE OF THE OBREC WAVE ENERGY CONVERTER [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2017
OBREC is the latest innovation of overtopping wave energy converter (WEC) which is coalesced with the rubble mound breakwaters. The acquisition of wave overtopping in a front reservoir and consequently releasing process through turbine is the concept of ...

Enhancing Recharge Beneath Low‐Permeability Landscapes with Small‐Diameter Drywells: Token Creek, WI

open access: yesGroundwater, EarlyView.
Shallow, small‐diameter drywells provide enhanced recharge in rural landscapes, bypassing the low infiltration rates caused by low permeability surficial soils and high ET rates. One year of monitoring data show several recharge events and overall high water quality.

Evolution, Routing and Reservoir Characteristics of Submarine Channels in a Structurally Deforming Slope Setting: Deep‐Water Joint Development Zone of Nigeria and São Tomé and Príncipe

open access: yesJournal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deep‐water slope channels and associated facies are a major part of clastic sediment dispersal system extending from the shelf‐edge to the abyssal plain. The toe‐thrust area of the deep‐water Niger Delta enables the analysis of these channels and their interaction with evolving fault‐controlled sea‐floor topography to be determined ...

High and dry: the persistence of diverse coastal marsh communities depends on available upland area and connection to surrounding waters

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Sea‐level‐rise and alterations to natural hydrology have contributed to coastal land loss. To combat coastal land loss and maintain the ecosystem services provided by marshes, marsh creation has been broadly implemented. Marsh creation projects can be performed in conjunction with the construction of elevated terrestrial ridges that seek to mimic ...

Numerical Approach for Predicting Levee Overtopping in River Curves Through Dimensionless Parameters

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Recent climate changes have led to an increase in flood intensity, often resulting in frequent levee overtopping, which causes significant human and property damage.

Utopia Remembers: The Soviet Past in the Imagined Communist Future

open access: yesThe Russian Review, EarlyView.
Abstract After a twenty‐five‐year hiatus, the reappearance of utopian literature in 1957 prompted Soviet literary watchdogs to corral the subgenre into an ideologically‐acceptable mold. A key requirement was for future generations to be depicted as reverently commemorating the past.
