Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020 Headland rips, sometimes referred to as boundary rips, are rip currents flowing against natural or artificial obstructions extending seaward from the beach, such as headland or groynes. They can be driven either by the deflection of the longshore current

Modelling the alongshore variability of optimum rip current escape strategies on a multiple rip-channelled beach [PDF]
, 2016 International audienceRip currents are a leading cause of drowning on beaches worldwide. How bathers caught in a rip current should attempt to escape has been a subject of recent debate. A numerical model of human bathers escaping from a rip current flow

Kite Aerial Photography (KAP) for rip current identification in Parangtritis Beach
E3S Web of Conferences, 2019 Rip current is being the major cause of the deadly accidents in Parangtritis Beach. This occasion can be prevented by mapping and monitoring the spatial pattern of rip currents at the location which rip currents are located.

Exploring the role of neurogenic pathway-linked cholecystokinin release in remote preconditioning-induced cardioprotection [PDF]
Acta Cirúrgica Brasileira, 2020 Purpose: The current study explored the involvement of neurogenic pathway-linked cholecystokinin (CCK) release in RIP-induced cardioprotection in rats.

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1972 The generation and stabilization of rip - current circulation patterns is considered herein. An analytic model is developed to simulate the wave hydrodynamic processes in the nearshore zone, strongly influenced by the local bottom topography. The wave induced nearshore circulation pattern is computed and the results compared to prototype field data.

Rip current types, circulation and hazard [PDF]
, 2016 Rip currents are narrow and concentrated seaward-directed flows that extend from close to the shoreline, through the surf zone, and varying distances beyond. Rip currents are ubiquitous on wave-exposed coasts.

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1978 "The outworn dogmas of science seem to be particularly concentrated in the discussions of the ocean in geology books". Beginning with this controversial statement, F. P. Shepard in 1936 tried to lay to rest the concept of the undertow, which had been debated in the pages of Science for over a decade.

, 2010 Background: Repeat-induced point mutation (RIP) is a fungal genome defence mechanism guarding against transposon invasion. RIP mutates the sequence of repeated DNA and over time renders the affected regions unrecognisable by similarity search tools such ...

Revising the taxonomic distribution, origin and evolution of ribosome inactivating protein genes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Ribosome inactivating proteins are enzymes that depurinate a specific adenine residue in the alpha-sarcin-ricin loop of the large ribosomal RNA, being ricin and Shiga toxins the most renowned examples.
