Gleaning the Rocky Shore? 2500 Years of Coastal Resource Use at Red Bluff 1, GunaiKurnai Country, SE Australia

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Shell middens in Gippsland along the eastern half of Victoria's coastline have usually been characterised as small, short‐duration camp sites with relatively low shell densities and low taxonomic diversity. Here we present new excavation results from a dense, high‐diversity site at Red Bluff near the eastern end of GunaiKurnai Country, a ...

Repeating Nuclear Transients From Repeating Partial Tidal Disruption Events

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extragalactic nuclear transients that exhibit repeating outbursts can be modeled as the repeated dynamical interaction between bound stars and supermassive black holes (SMBHs). A subset of these transients, with recurrence timescales of months‐to‐years, have been explained as accretion flares from the repeated tidal stripping of a star by an ...

A typology of marine and estuarine hazards and risks as vectors of change : a review for vulnerable coasts and their management [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper illustrates a typology of 14 natural and anthropogenic hazards, the evidence for their causes and consequences for society and their role as vectors of change in estuaries, vulnerable coasts and marine areas.

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Thermal Field–Enhanced Electro‐, Photo‐, and Photoelectrocatalytic Processes: Fundamentals, Material Design, and Applications

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Overview of thermal field–enhanced electro‐, photo‐, and photoelectrocatalytic processes: fundamentals, material design, and applications. As a very attractive approach to energy conversion and storage, electrocatalytic, photocatalytic, and photoelectrocatalytic strategies have gained increasing attention in the past decades.

Scour‐Conditioned Seismic Fragility Analysis of Monopile‐Supported Offshore Wind Turbines

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Monopile‐supported offshore wind turbines (MS‐OWTs) are increasingly deployed in seismic coastal regions, where they face compound risks from earthquake loading and seabed scour. While past studies have addressed these hazards separately, seismic fragility under evolving scour conditions remains insufficiently understood. This study introduces

Plasma Activate Nitrogen for Efficient Ammonia Synthesis

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
This review systematically summarizes the classification and reaction mechanism of plasma, and discusses the synergy between different plasmas and catalytic methods along with energy consumptions in detail, in order to gain a deeper understanding of currently ammonia synthesis strategies.

Mesoscale Circulation and Coral Community Disturbance at Isolated Reefs

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
The Loop Current is a seasonally and interannually dynamic mesoscale oceanographic feature in the Gulf of Mexico that strongly influences connectivity and environmental conditions across the region. We investigated the influence of Loop Current variability on coral reef disturbances at isolated reefs in the northwest Gulf, including coral disease ...
