Extreme wave and storm surge characteristics in the southeastern coastal and offshore regions of China [PDF]

Scientific Reports
A numerical model is established based on the FVCOM-SWAVE wave-current coupling model to investigate the typhoon-induced wave and storm surge level in the southeastern coastal and offshore regions of China. A hindcast of 192 typhoons from 1979 to 2023 is

Experimental Study on Vertical Bearing and Deformation Characteristics of Qiantang River Ancient Seawall [PDF]

Buildings, 2023
Situated on the northern bank of the Qiantang River estuary, the ancient seawall serves not only as a national cultural relic but also as an active agent in flood and tide prevention.

Population Genomics Provides Novel Insights Into Evolutionary Relationships and Local Adaptation of Two Ecotypes <i>Coilia nasus</i>. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Based on whole‐genome resequencing, we determined that the freshwater‐resident form (C. nasus taihuensis) is an ecotype of anadromous Coilia nasus, not a distinct subspecies. The two ecotypes diverged approximately 4.6 thousand years ago, coinciding with the formation of Tai Lake.

Real-time characteristics of tidal bore propagation in the Qiantang River Estuary, China, recorded by marine radar [PDF]

Continental Shelf Research, 2019
Quantitative real-time observations of a tidal bore in a macro-tidal estuary are difficult and dangerous, particularly in large estuaries. Mathematical and numerical models have been used to predict tidal bore advances; however, to date, there have been no validations of large-scale flow patterns.

Characteristics and accumulation model of the late Quaternary shallow biogenic gas in the modern Changjiang delta area, eastern China [PDF]

Petroleum Science, 2017
The Changjiang (Yangtze) is one of the largest rivers in the world. It formed a huge incised valley at its mouth during the Last Glacial Maximum; the incised-valley fill, approximately 80–110 m thick, supplies an important foundation for the generation ...

Case study of toe scour and deposition at seawalls in the Qiantang River estuary

International Journal of Sediment Research
In tidal estuarine regions, toe scour and deposition at seawalls, which are influenced by runoff and tidal flow, present complexities not found in inland rivers and wave-dominated coasts.

Sedimentation processes and sedimentary characteristics of tidal bores along the north bank of the Qiantang Estuary [PDF]

Chinese Science Bulletin, 2012
A tidal bore is a unique Earth surface process, characterized by its highly destructive energy, predictable periodicities and magnitudes, and the production of characteristic sedimentary features. Tidal bores and associated rapid flood flows are highly turbulent flows of the upper-flow regime with a velocity over several meters per second. Reynolds (Re)

Turbulence, Sediment‐Induced Stratification, and Mixing Under Macrotidal Estuarine Conditions (Qiantang Estuary, China) [PDF]

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2019
AbstractTime series of in situ measured velocity and suspended sediment concentration from Qiantang Estuary (China), and estimates of turbulence and sediment stratification parameters are presented. The data span a period of 9 days, and after phase averaged, they are used to explore spring‐neap tidal variations in flow, turbulence, and sediment ...
