Boundary layer dynamics in the swash zone under large-scale laboratory conditions [PDF]

, 2014
This paper presents the results of a laboratory experiment of swash hydrodynamics on a coarse sand barrier beach backed by a lagoon. Boundary layer dynamics have been analyzed using the high-resolution near-bed velocities measured by Acoustic Doppler ...

Civility, honour and male aggression in early modern English jestbooks

Gender &History, EarlyView.
Abstract This article discusses the comical representation of inter‐male violence within early modern English jestbooks. It is based on a rigorous survey of the genre, picking out common themes and anecdotes, as well as discussing their reception and sociable functions. Previous scholarship has focused on patriarchs, subversive youths and impoliteness.

Influence of Evaporation and High‐Frequency Seawater Inundation on Salinity Dynamics in Swash Zones

Water Resources Research
The interactions between the atmosphere, ocean, and beach in the swash zone are dynamic, influencing water flux and solute exchange across the land‐sea interface.

Prediction of overwash in alongshore variable barrier islands [Previsão da ocorrência de galgamentos em ilhas barreira com variabilidade longilitoral] [PDF]

, 2019
Overwash prediction is very important for coastal zone management. This work intends to identify alongshore variations in storm impact and evaluate the role of sub-aerial and submerged morphologies in overwash occurrence.

STRAND: A Model for Longshore Sediment Transport in the Swash Zone [PDF]

, 2000
In this paper we report on the development and performance of an engineering model, STRAND which has the aim of predicting longshore movement of coarse sediment above the still water line of steep beaches.

Growth and Variation in Fallow Deer (Dama dama L.) From Two Contrasting Habitats in Southern Britain

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We have compiled a unique data set on the age, sex, body weight and dimensions of over 500 European fallow deer from two contrasting areas of habitat in southern England: a high‐density managed parkland population and a lower‐density feral woodland one.

Diaphragmatic Neurophysiology and Respiratory Markers in ALS

Frontiers in Neurology, 2019
The main reason for short survival in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is involvement of respiratory muscles. Severe compromise of diaphragmatic function due to marked loss of motor units causes poor inspiratory strength leading to symptomatic ...

Coastal evolution, environmental change and carbon storage in the Thung Prong Thong Mangrove, eastern Gulf of Thailand

Boreas, EarlyView.
Palaeoenvironmental records along the eastern coast of Thailand remain sparse, with only a few studies attempting to reconstruct past climatic and environmental conditions. However, additional palaeoenvironmental, palaeoclimatic and sea‐level records are needed to improve our understanding of coastal evolution and local environmental changes.

SWASH OSCILLATION AND RESULTING SEDIMENT MOVEMENT

Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1988
A numerical model for predicting the swash oscillation on a beach is described and compared with field data on wave setup and swash statistics on a moderately steep beach with a nearshore bar.
