Atmospheric noise of a breaking tidal bore [PDF]
A tidal bore is a surge of waters propagating upstream in an estuary as the tidal flow turns to rising and the flood tide propagates into a funnel-shaped system. Large tidal bores have a marked breaking roller.

Abstract Beach evolution severely impacts the economy and social well‐being of coastal communities, posing a threat to the safety of coastal infrastructure. Under the influence of rising sea levels and other various environmental variables, the coastal morphology of Eastern China has undergone significant changes, particularly in the low‐lying beach ...

Effect of contracted river on tidal bore in Qiantang Estuary
Since the late 1960s, the Qiantang Estuary has been narrowed on a large scale, significantly changing the water-sediment dynamics, riverbed evolution and their interaction processes.

Abstract The lack of sufficient in‐situ ocean observations significantly limits progress in studying the underwater marine environment. Fully analyzing the 4‐dimensional distribution of observation data, especially the changes over time and depth, allows for a broader and deeper application of marine data mining.

Abstract Conventional methods of measuring water discharge and suspended sediment concentration (e.g., water sampling and moving acoustic Doppler current profiler [ADCP]) present challenges in large tidal rivers due to temporal and spatial constraints.

Abstract China has experienced substantial coastal reclamation and damming of rivers. These changes have the potential to impact migrations of diadromous fishes between the sea and fresh waters, but the composition of these fishes and the impacts of barriers to their movement in China have received little attention.

Geomorphological and stratigraphic evolution of a fluvial incision in the coastal plain and inner continental shelf in southern Brazil [PDF]
This paper describes the evolution of a sector of the southern coastal plain of the Pelotas Basin, southern Brazil, between the last Pleistocene sea-level lowstand and the Holocene highstand, based on geomorphology and high-resolution stratigraphy.
