Fostering Scientist Identity Development and Compatibility in an Undergraduate Research Experience Program

open access: yesScience Education, Volume 110, Issue 2, Page 459-478, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Undergraduate research experience programs can provide students with significant opportunities to engage in research and further develop scientist identities. Grounded in theoretical frames of identity compatibility, interactionist approach, and intersectionality we present findings from an undergraduate research experience program ...

Interlocking Precast Concrete Block Seawall

open access: yesCoastal Engineering 1964, 1964
As a result of a survey of damage caused by the severe storm of March 1962 which affected the entire east coast of the United States, a new and specially-shaped interlocking concrete block was developed for use in shore protection. This block is designed to be used in a revetment-type seawall that will be both durable and economical as well as reduce ...

Tide‐Modulated Ocean‐to‐Earth Energy Conversion Quantified With Coastal Fiber Sensing

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Quantifying how incident ocean waves transfer energy into seismic surface waves along the nearshore is essential for understanding coastal hazards and Earth–ocean coupling, yet time‐resolved in situ estimates have been scarce. Here we use a beach‐deployed distributed acoustic sensing array co‐located with an ocean‐bottom node to directly ...

SEAWALLS AND BREAKWATERS

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 1950
Since the days of the Phoenicians and Egyptians, men have struggled to build harbor works capable of standing against the forces of the sea. Although the remains of Roman works have endured to the modern era, little progress in design was made until the early part of the last century. Modern developments have led to a better knowledge of wave pressures,
