Sediment inception under breaking tidal bores [PDF]

open access: yesMechanics Research Communications, 2012
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.

Consideration of the Mechanisms for Tidal Bore Formation in an Idealized Planform Geometry [PDF]

open access: yesWater 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.

Tidal bore revealed by SWOT: a case study from the Severn river [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
We 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 ...

Atmospheric noise of a breaking tidal bore [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2016
A tidal bore is a surge of waters propagating upstream in an estuary as the tidal flow turns to rising and the flood tide propagates into a funnel-shaped system. Large tidal bores have a marked breaking roller.

Tidal Bore Scour around a Spur Dike

open access: yesJournal 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.

Minimal model for tidal bore revisited [PDF]

open access: yesNew 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 ...

Observations of Breaking Internal Tides on the Australian North West Shelf Edge

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
A comprehensive observational data set was used to examine shoreward propagating semidiurnal internal tides as they shoal, break and run-up as turbulent boluses across the edge of the Australian North West Shelf (NWS), offshore Dampier, during late ...

Caustics in quantum many-body dynamics

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2022
We describe a new class of nonequilibrium quantum many-body phenomena in the form of networks of caustics that dominate the many-body wave function in the semiclassical regime following a sudden quench.

Undular and breaking tidal bores on fixed and movable gravel beds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A tidal bore is a positive surge taking place during the flood tide with a large tidal range and the bore corresponds to the leading edge of the tidal wave propagating upstream.

Tidal bore dynamics in funnel‐shaped estuaries [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...
