Tidal bore revealed by SWOT: a case study from the Severn river [PDF]
Scientific ReportsWe utilize Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite data to derive a complete longitudinal profile of water surface elevations for tidal waves and capture a tidal bore within the Bristol Channel and Severn River system, marking the first such ...

Minimal model for tidal bore revisited [PDF]
New Journal of Physics, 2019 This develops a recent analysis of gentle undular tidal bores (2018 New J. Phys. 20 053066) and corrects an error. The simplest linear-wave superposition, of monochromatic waves propagating according to the shallow-water dispersion relation, leads to a ...

Tidal bore dynamics in funnel‐shaped estuaries [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2015 AbstractThe formation and dynamics of tidal bores in funnel‐shaped estuaries is investigated from both a global tidal wave scaling analysis and new quantitative field observations. We show that tidal bore occurrence in convergent estuaries can be estimated from a dimensionless scaling parameter characterizing the relative intensity of nonlinear ...

Tidal Bore Scour around a Spur Dike
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 Tidal bores are a natural phenomenon with high flow velocity and destructive potential. A spur dike is a widely used river regulation and embankment protection structure that minimizes erosion, promotes deposition, and protects riverbanks.

Consideration of the Mechanisms for Tidal Bore Formation in an Idealized Planform Geometry
Water Resources Research, 2018 A tidal bore is a positive wave traveling upstream along the estuary of a river, generated by a relatively rapid rise of the tide, often enhanced by the funneling shape of the estuary.

Sediment inception under breaking tidal bores [PDF]
Mechanics Research Communications, 2012 Abstract A tidal bore may develop in an estuary during the spring tide conditions when the tidal range exceeds 5–6 m and the flood tide is confined to a narrow funnelled estuary with low freshwater levels. The tidal bore is of great importance for the geomorphology of the estuarine zone.

The evolution of an internal bore at the Malin shelf break [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 1999 Observations of internal waves were made at the Malin shelf edge during SESAME (Shelf Edge Studies Acoustic Measurement Experiment), a part of the NERC LOIS-SES experiment, in August-September 1996. These measurements provide a high resolution dataset

Multimodal structure of baroclinic tides in the South China Sea [PDF]
Nonlinear Processes in Geophysics, 2010 The modelling of baroclinic tides generated in the northern South China Sea is studied using a fully-nonlinear non-hydrostatic numerical model. The focus of the modelling efforts was on the vertical structure of internal waves in the vicinity of the ...
