Comments on "The Depth-Dependent Current and Wave Interaction Equations: A Revision" [PDF]
, 2010 Equations for the wave-averaged three-dimensional momentum equations have been published in this journal. It appears that these equations are not consistent with the known depth-integrated momentum balance, especially over a sloping bottom.

eDNA captures depth partitioning in a kelp forest ecosystem.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is an increasingly important tool for surveying biodiversity in marine ecosystems. However, the scale of temporal and spatial variability in eDNA signatures, and how this variation may impact eDNA-based marine ...

An equilibrium profile model for tidal environments
Scientia Marina, 2002 During a full tidal cycle, the beach profile is exposed to continuously changing hydrodynamical conditions. Consequently, the profile evolves constantly to adapt to these changes.

Emerging crescentic patterns in modelled double sandbar systems under normally incident waves [PDF]
Earth Surface Dynamics, 2020 Double sandbar systems often characterize the surf zone of wave-dominated beaches and display a variety of poorly explained spatial configurations.

Coastal Engineering 1984, 1984 The on-offshore and the vertical components u, w of the velocity in a surf zone on a uniformly sloping beach in a wave tank were measured simultaneously with a laser-doppler velocimeter under two conditions. The time variation of the Reynolds stress -u'w' during one wave period is discussed.

Laboratory investigation of shape and initial orientation effects on surf zone object migration
Applied Ocean ResearchDiscarded objects like munitions in marine environments pose public safety risks. The behavior of various density objects deployed at four cross-shore positions in the surf zone of a large-scale 120 m x 5 m x 5 m wave flume were observed under different ...

Step Approximation on Water Wave Breaking and Dissipation over Variable Bottoms across the Surf Zone
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 This study investigates the combined effect of the breaking and energy dissipation of water waves by variable bottoms across the surf zone. The shoreline is set up as a partially reflecting vertical wall in the solution technique, with shelves between ...

A Response Guide for Sunken Oil Mats (SOMs): Formation, Behavior, Detection, and Recovery
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Based on past spills, the conditions under which floating oil mixes with enough sand to form sunken oil mats (SOMs) are identified. SOMs form mostly during spills of heavy crudes or heavy fuel oils, but also highly weathered and viscous crude oils.

Field Investigations in Surf Zones
Coastal Engineering 1974, 1974 During storm surges considerable wave energies are dissipated in surf zones; the energy transfer rates are in the order of one up to two powers of ten higher than outside the surf zone. A breaker parameter s introduced by FOHRBOTER (1974) with regard to a quantitative breaker classification, especially of the intermediate types between surging and ...
