Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Food security in Kerala depends on effective irrigation, but poor‐quality irrigation water poses threats such as salinity, sodicity and reduced soil productivity. Although past assessments have been localised, this study presents the first comprehensive, statewide evaluation of irrigation water suitability across 44 major rivers in Kerala.

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

Environmental, ecological and cultural impacts of tidal bores, burros and bonos [PDF]
, 2009 A tidal bore is a series of waves propagating upstream as the tidal flow turns to rising. It forms during the spring tide conditions when the tidal range exceeds 4 to 6 m and the flood tide is confined to a narrow funnelled estuary with low freshwater ...

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.Abstract The sedimentary succession at Whittlesey preserves a unique British late Middle Pleistocene to Holocene record back to a time equivalent to at least marine oxygen isotope stage 8 (ca. 250 ka). This study builds on previously published sedimentology, geochronology and palaeoecology results to establish 20 sedimentary facies associations, with ...

Dynamic Response Analysis and Liquefaction Potential Evaluation of Riverbed Induced by Tidal Bore
Journal of Marine Science and EngineeringTidal bores, defined by sudden upstream surges of tidal water in estuaries, exert significant hydrodynamic forces on riverbeds, leading to complex sedimentary responses.

Impact of a large cylindrical roughness on tidal bore propagation [PDF]
, 2016 A tidal bore is a hydrodynamic shock, surging upstream in some shallow-water bays and estuaries during the flood tide under large tidal range. This study investigates experimentally the propagation of tidal bores over a large cylindrical roughness ...

The Tidal Bore in the Trent [PDF]
Nature, 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.

Turbulence and sediment processes in The tidal bore of the garonne river: First observations [PDF]
, 2010 A tidal bore is a series of waves propagating upstream as the tidal flow turns to rising, forming during spring tide conditions when the tidal range exceeds 4 to 6 m and the flood tide is confined to a narrow funnelled estuary. After the formation of the
