GlobSed: Updated Total Sediment Thickness in the World's Oceans
We present GlobSed, a new global 5‐arc‐minute total sediment thickness grid for the world's oceans and marginal seas. GlobSed covers a larger area than previously published global grids and incorporates updates for the NE Atlantic, Arctic, Southern Ocean,

Simulation of sediment incipience around the vibrating monopile [PDF]
Based on the fluid volume fraction large eddy simulation discrete phase coupling model, the water and sediment flow around the vibrating monopile was simulated. The discrete phase momentum model was enhanced using the force distribution of the particle phase on the bed surface.

Hydraulic and mechanical properties of glacial sediments beneath Unteraargletscher, Switzerland: implications for glacier basal motion [PDF]
The force on a ‘ploughmeter’ and subglacial water pressure have been measured in the same borehole at Unteraargletscher, Switzerland, in order to investigate ice–sediment coupling and the motion at the base of a soft-bedded glacier.

Deficiency and excess of groundwater iodine and their health associations
Both iodine deficiency and excess could cause thyroid disorders. By creating a national map of groundwater iodine throughout China, the authors reveal the spatial responses of diverse health risks to iodine in continental groundwater.

Reduced sediment transport in the Yellow River due to anthropogenic changes
The erosion, transport and redeposition of sediments shape the Earth's surface, and affect the structure and function of ecosystems and society(1,2). The Yellow River was once the world's largest carrier of fluvial sediment, but its sediment load has ...

A physical model for seismic noise generation from sediment transport in rivers [PDF]
Measuring sediment flux in rivers remains a significant problem in studies of landscape evolution. Recent studies suggest that observations of seismic noise near rivers can help provide such measurements, but the lack of models linking observed seismic ...

Sampling Strategies to Improve Passive Optical Remote Sensing of River Bathymetry
Passive optical remote sensing of river bathymetry involves establishing a relation between depth and reflectance that can be applied throughout an image to produce a depth map. Building upon the Optimal Band Ratio Analysis (OBRA) framework, we introduce

Effects of deposit-feeding bivalve (Macomona liliana) density on intertidal sediment stability [PDF]
Effects of macrofaunal feeding and bioturbation on intertidal sediment stability (u*crit) were investigated by manipulating density (0-3 x ambient) of the facultative deposit-feeding wedge shell (Macomona liliana) on the Tuapiro sandflat in Tauranga ...

Sensitivity and uncertainty analysis of the Variable Infiltration Capacity model in the upstream of Heihe River basin [PDF]
The increasing water problems and eco-environmental issues of Heihe River basin have attracted widespread attention. In this research, the VIC (Variable Infiltration Capacity) model was selected to simulate the water cycle of the upstream in Heihe River ...
