A pressure impulse theory for hemispherical liquid impact problems
Liquid impact problems for hemispherical fluid domain are considered. By using the concept of pressure impulse we show that the solution of the flow induced by the impact is reduced to the derivation of Laplace's equation in spherical coordinates with ...

Thresholds of Wave Forcing: Implications for Atoll Reef Dynamics Under Sea Level Rise
Abstract We investigate the response of shallow reef flow to tidal variability and wave exposure during a 4‐month field campaign in southern Huvadhu Atoll, Maldives. Incident waves breaking on steep fore reefs and reef crests generate a setup proportional to offshore wave height that drives a cross‐reef flow. We emphasize a critical threshold—where the

ABSTRACT A unique biogenic bryozoan reef has been recently discovered in Western Port (a temperate embayment), Victoria, Australia. This reef is significant owing to its contiguous, regular, linear rows of densely stacked bryozoan colonies with large vertical relief. We aimed to (1) document the biodiversity of the macroinvertebrate epifauna associated

Abstract Aim A retrospective observational cohort study, in the Netherlands, evaluated clinical outcomes with oral semaglutide. Methods Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1ra) naïve type 2 diabetes (T2D) patients who initiated oral semaglutide between 1 January 2020 and 31 December 2022 were identified from the PHARMO Data Network.

Perencanaan Bangunan Pelindung Pantai Tambakharjo, Semarang [PDF]
Tambakharjo coast located in Semarang. Tambakharjo coast damaged a shoreline setback. Construction of coastal protection building a seawall is one way to prevent more serious damage to the coast. Construction of coastal protection building is expected to

ABSTRACT Ship‐induced waves significantly impact freshwater ecosystems, estuaries and tidal rivers by accelerating shoreline erosion and reducing aquatic biodiversity. Morphological protection measures are implemented to mitigate these adverse effects, but their effectiveness in preventing shoreline zone deterioration has not been systematically ...

Extreme Potomac Floods at Washington D.C. During the Past 500 Years
Abstract Washington D.C. faces one of the highest 100‐year flood risks of any major city along the U.S. East Coast. In addition to storm‐surge inundation during hurricanes and nor'easters, water‐level observations for Washington are strongly skewed by major floods on the Potomac River.

Reservoir Regulation has Brought a Classic River‐Dominated Delta Under Human Control
Abstract Damming of wild rivers has trapped vast quantities of sediment that would otherwise nourish deltas, causing severe sediment deficits and accelerating delta erosion worldwide. The Yellow River Delta (YRD), once prograding seaward at ∼10 km2/yr, began retreating at −5.6 km2/yr following completion of the Xiaolangdi Reservoir.

Natural Coral Colonization of a Marina Seawall in Singapore [PDF]
Marinas require extensive modification of a natural coast. The resulting modified habitat is known to supportchanged biological communities but the ability of tropical marinas to function as a surrogate habitat forscleractinian corals has not been well ...
