Morphodynamic modeling the impact of large-scale embankment on the large bar in a convergent estuary
Many alluvial estuaries worldwide include an inside bar system, a large sediment deposit deeply stretched into the estuary. A good example of such a system is the large sediment deposit in the Qiantang Estuary, China.

Abstract Bighead carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis) and silver carp (H. molitrix), collectively called bigheaded carps, are cyprinids native mainly to China and have been introduced to over 70 countries. Paleontological and molecular phylogenetic analyses demonstrate bighead and silver carps originated from the Yangtze‐Huanghe River basins and modern ...

Study on Strength and Permeability of Silt Soils Improving by Tung Oil and Sticky Rice Juice
Tianluoshan site (5000∼2500 BC), which belongs to the Hemudu culture, has suffered damages from the hydraulic effect like other Chinese earthen sites in moist circumstance. Tung oil and sticky rice juice, as Chinese traditional building materials, were chosen as the additives in this study. Tung oil has the property of good waterproofness, fast dry‐up,

Effects of Qiandao Lake water diversion project on Qiantang River estuary saltwater intrusion
Qiandao Lake water diversion project will change the runoff process of the Fuchun reservoir and the salinity of Qiantang River estuary. A two-dimensional numerical salinity model which including tidal bore's action is established.

Atmospheric noise of a breaking tidal bore [PDF]
A tidal bore is a surge of waters propagating upstream in an estuary as the tidal flow turns to rising and the flood tide propagates into a funnel-shaped system. Large tidal bores have a marked breaking roller.

Land Reclamation Impacts on Tidal Landscape Evolution
Abstract In the past 1000 years, the continuous need for fertile and strategically located land has led to the reclamation of intertidal areas. The direct and short‐term impact of land reclamation is a reduction in intertidal storage space and the loss of ecological value.
