Rip current related drowning deaths and rescues in Australia 2004–2011 [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013 Rip currents are a common hazard to beachgoers found on many beaches around the world, but it has proven difficult to accurately quantify the actual number of rip current related drowning deaths in many regions and countries.

A wave-resolving modeling study of rip current variability, rip hazard, and swimmer escape strategies on an embayed beach [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023 Drownings due to rip currents are a major threat to beach safety. In this study a high-resolution Boussinesq model with a modified wave-resolving Lagrangian tracking module has been applied to a 2 km long embayed beach, Dadonghai of Sanya, Hainan Island,

YOLO-Rip: A modified lightweight network for Rip currents detection
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Rip currents form on beaches worldwide and pose a potential safety hazard for beach visitors. Therefore, effectively identifying rip currents from beach scenes and providing real-time alerts to beach managers and beachgoers is crucial. In this study, the

ELCVIA Electronic Letters on Computer Vision and Image Analysis, 2023 Beach hazards would be any occurrences potentially endanger individuals as well as their activity. Rip current, or reverse current of the sea, is a type of wave that pushes against the shore and moves in the opposite direction, that is, towards the deep

A Bayesian network approach to modelling rip-current drownings and shore-break wave injuries [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2021 A Bayesian network (BN) approach is used to model and predict shore-break-related injuries and rip-current drowning incidents based on detailed environmental conditions (wave, tide, weather, beach morphology) on the high-energy Gironde coast, southwest ...

Geophysical Research Letters, 2013 Oceanic Rossby waves and eddies flux energy and fluid westward, the latter through the Stokes drift or bolus transport. While the wave energy is largely dissipated at the western boundary, mass conservation requires that the fluid be returned offshore through Rossby rip currents.

Bigger Rip with No Dark Energy [PDF]
, 2004 By studying a modified Friedmann equation which arises in an extension of general relativity which accommodates a time-dependent fundamental length $L(t)$, we consider cosmological models where the scale factor diverges with an essential singularity at a

RIP CURRENTS ON A BARRED BEACH [PDF]
Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 2012 This work presents the numerical study of rip current circulation on a barred beach. The numerical simulations have been carried out with the IH-FOAM model which is based on the three dimensional Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes equations. The new boundary conditions implemented in IH-FOAM have been used, including three dimensional wave generation as ...
