Comparing non‐staining methods with Mutvei's solution to visualize growth increments in short‐lived intertidal marine gastropod shells

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Mutvei's solution is a widely utilized standard staining method for revealing growth increments in biogenic carbonates; however, it is a slightly toxic, destructive approach with varying success across species groups. Therefore, there has been growing interest in finding non‐toxic, less destructive, and straightforward alternative techniques ...

Turbulent mixing beneath an undular bore front [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In macro-tidal estuaries, a tidal bore may form during spring tide conditions when the flood tide is confined to a narrow channel. Most field occurrences showed well-defined undulations behind the leading wave, that is an undular bore process.

Wall‐to‐wall Amazon forest height mapping with Planet NICFI, Aerial LiDAR, and a U‐Net regression model

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Tree canopy height is a key indicator of forest biomass and structure, yet accurate mapping across the Amazon remains challenging. Here, we generated a canopy height map of the Amazon forest at ~4.8 m resolution using Planet NICFI imagery and a deep learning U‐Net model trained with airborne LiDAR data.

Characterisation of unsteady turbulence in breaking tidal bores including the effects of bed roughness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A tidal bore is an unsteady flow motion generated by the rapid water level rise at the river mouth during the early flood tide. With time, the leading edge of the tidal wave becomes steeper and steeper until it forms a wall of water that is the tidal ...

Physical Modelling of the Flow Field in an Undular Tidal Bore [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A tidal bore may form in a converging channel with a funnel shape when the tidal range exceeds 6-9 m. The advancing surge has a major impact on the estuarine ecosystem.

Comparative Trends of Sociality Among Terrestrial Carnivores: A Multivariate Analysis 陆生食肉动物社会性的比较趋势:一项多变量分析

open access: yesWildlife Letters, EarlyView.
In this study we analyze the role of phylogeny, environment, and community structure on sociality. Using structural equation modeling (SEM) we aim to quantify the direct and indirect impacts of variables on behaviors including social grouping, reproduction, and space use among Carnivora species.

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.

Environmental, ecological and cultural impacts of tidal bores, benaks, bonos and burros [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Groundwater reinjection and heat dissipation: lessons from the operation of a large groundwater cooling system in Central London [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The performance of a large open-loop groundwater cooling scheme in a shallow alluvial aquifer at a prominent public building in Central London has been monitored closely over its first 2 years of operation.

Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Ecological paradigms suggest that the environmentally stressful edge of a habitat is determined by physical factors. The work finds that, counter to these paradigms, an environmentally stressful edge can also be impacted by biotic interactions and are more complex than suggested.
