Abstract Winter storms present a major erosional hazard to subaqueous deltas globally, but the associated dynamic mechanisms are still not well understood. Using high‐resolution in situ data collected over a 3‐week period in the abandoned Yellow River subaqueous delta, this study employs three‐dimensional quadrant analysis to examine turbulent ...

This study presents a failure‐oriented analysis of corrosion in marine infrastructure, linking degradation mechanisms to crack initiation, fatigue propagation, and structural failure. A unified framework is proposed to connect environmental exposure, material degradation, and reliability, supporting failure prediction, inspection planning, and life ...

The Structure and Lifecycle of Stratified Mixing by Shear Instabilities in Continuously Forced Flows
Abstract The turbulent energy cascade of ocean mixing remains poorly understood at geophysically large Reynolds numbers (Re $\mathrm{R}\mathrm{e}$). Here we propose a new conceptual model for the structure of small‐scale mixing grounded in high‐resolution multibeam echosounding observations from the mouth of the Connecticut River, a shallow salt‐wedge ...

CYCLONE MODELS FOR A SUBMERGED BREAKWATER
Kahului Harbor, located on the north shore of Maui, Hawaii, is approached by waves from the northwest in winter and northeast in summer. Wave energy entering the harbor during large swell events has repeatedly caused damage to existing protective structures and operations.

A non-hydrostatic model for wave evolution on a submerged trapezoidal breakwater
A depth-averaged non-hydrostatic model is formulated to investigate wave evolution on a water channel with a submerged trapezoidal breakwater. This model is an extension of nonlinear shallow water equations that includes hydrodynamic pressure and ...

Habitat complexity and grazing by invertebrate molluscs shaped community structure and ecosystem functioning on eco‐engineered substrates through distinct mechanisms. Increasing structural complexity increased invertebrate species richness with limited effects on macroalgae and carbon flux, while grazer exclusion had strong effects on macroalgal ...

SOLITARY WAVES PASSING OVER SUBMERGED BREAKWATERS
A method is described for the computation of the two-dimensional unsteady motion of a solitary wave passing over submerged breakwaters. Far from the breakwater the fluid is assumed static and the sea bed is level. The fluid motion is assumed to be irrotational, incompressible and inviscid.

An Overview of Tsunami Hazards in the Southwest Pacific Ocean
The southwest Pacific region is geologically complex and exhibits all the principal causes of tsunami generation. While contemporary events and historical catalogs indicate that trans‐Pacific tsunamis have affected this area (∼18% of tsunamis reported globally), it is unique in that a large part of the tsunami effects over the ∼200‐year historical ...
