Modeling analysis of tidal bore formation in convergent estuaries [PDF]

European Journal of Mechanics - B/Fluids, 2018
Despite the recognized impact of tidal bores on estuarine ecosystems, the large scale mechanism of bore formation in convergent alluvial estuaries is still under investigation. So far, field data exist only for a small number of estuaries, while numerical simulations employ the shallow water equations mainly focusing on the small-scale and local ...

Internal tidal bores in the Monterey Canyon

, 1999
A thirty-four day record of near-bottom temperature and horizontal velocity spanning the lower third of the water column from within Monterey Canyon was examined. The observed internal tide is highly non-linear with kinetic energy dispersed among numerous overtides near the bottom and more concentrated in the primary semi diurnal constituent (M2 ...

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

Frontiers 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

Physical 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]

, 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.

Environmental Impact of Undular Tidal Bores in Tropical Rivers [PDF]

, 2005
A tidal bore impacts significantly on the estuarine ecosystem, although little is known on the flow field, mixing and sediment motion beneath tidal bores.

Turbulent mixing of particles under tidal bores: An experimental analysis [PDF]

, 2010
A tidal bore develops in an estuary when the tidal range exceeds 4.5-6 m and the estuarine bathymetry amplifies the tidal wave. The bore is an abrupt rise in water depth associated with a discontinuity in velocity and pressure fields at the front. Herein

Off-bottom turbulence expansions of unbounded flow over a deep-ocean ridge

Tellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2019
Internal wave breaking upon sloping seafloors is a potential source of turbulent mixing in the deep-ocean, but we lack details on off-bottom breaking. Turbulence processes are relevant for the dispersal away from the seafloor of suspended materials like ...
