A numerical study of tidal bores

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2019
Abstract A tidal bore is a natural phenomenon forming a positive surge upstream and it has a remarkable effect on estuary zones and river ecologies. The tidal bore formation controlled by channel properties, tidal characteristics, and river discharge remains a research challenge.

A global satellite survey of density plumes at river mouths and at other environments: Plume configurations, external controls, and implications for deep-water sedimentation

open access: yesPetroleum Exploration and Development, 2018
The U. S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has archived thousands of satellite images of density plumes in its online publishing outlet called ‘Earth Observatory’ since 1999.

A Numerical Simulation of a Tidal Bore Flow [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Journal, 2010
A numerical model was developed based on the Cubic-Interpolated Pseudo-particle (CIP) Combined Unified Procedure (CIP-CUP or C-CUP) method equipped with a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) model and a re...

Dynamic Response Analysis and Liquefaction Potential Evaluation of Riverbed Induced by Tidal Bore

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Tidal bores, defined by sudden upstream surges of tidal water in estuaries, exert significant hydrodynamic forces on riverbeds, leading to complex sedimentary responses.

Foraminifera, Thecamoebians and Palynomorphs as Hydrodynamic Indicators in Araguari Estuary, Amazonian Coast, Amapá State – Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesAnuário do Instituto de Geociências, 2010
The Araguari estuarine dynamics is singular among traditional models of estuaries under tidal regime due to influence of macrotidal and tidal bore. In order to establish estuarine zones in Araguari according foraminifera, thecamoebians, paliynomorphs ...

The Tidal Bore in the Trent [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1928
THE accompanying photograph (Fig. 1) which was taken by me on Aug. 18 last at Knaith, five miles above Gainsborough, conveys an idea of the appearance of the tidal bore in the River Trent. Gainsborough is the most convenient stopping place for the visitor who desires to witness one of the most striking phenomena in the natural scenery of Great Britain.

Sedimentary signatures of tidal bores: a brief synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesGeo-Marine Letters, 2016
This article aims at presenting a brief synthesis of sedimentary signatures assigned to tidal bore dynamics and impacts. According to the few studies published until now on tidal bore-induced facies within inner estuarine tidal channel infilling successions, only two major signatures can be reported: (1) soft sediment deformations (SSDs) due to ...

Mixing and dispersion role of tidal bores [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
When a river mouth has a flat converging shape and when the tidal range exceeds 6 to 9 m, the river may experience a tidal bore. A tidal bore is basically a positive surge propagating upstream as the tidal flow turns to rising. The occurrence of a bore has a significant impact on estuarine systems.

Water quality in the macro-tidal Kampar estuary, Indonesia: Real-time measurement during significant tidal bore passages

open access: yesKuwait Journal of Science
The limited environmental study in the tidal bore-affected estuaries raises a big question about the significant influence of tidal bore on increasing the risk of water quality degradation and eutrophication in the estuarine area.
