Dispersion of fish eggs under undular and breaking tidal bores [PDF]
, 2011 A tidal bore is a wall of water propagating upstream as the tidal flow turns to rising into an estuary with a tidal range larger than 5 to 6 m and the bathymetry that amplifies the tidal wave.

High Frequency Field Measurements of an Undular Bore Using a 2D LiDAR Scanner
Remote Sensing, 2017 The secondary wave field associated with undular tidal bores (known as whelps) has been barely studied in field conditions: the wave field can be strongly non-hydrostatic, and the turbidity is generally high.

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

Impact of and adaptation strategies for sea-level rise on Yangtze River Delta
Advances in Climate Change Research, 2018 The Yangtze River Delta characterized by a dense population and a rapidly developing economy is highly vulnerable to sea-level rise. The data from the China Oceanic Information Network and the Zhejiang Provincial Hydrology Bureau are used to analyze sea ...

Turbulence and turbulent flux events in tidal bores: case study of the undular tidal bore of the Garonne River [PDF]
Environmental Fluid Mechanics, 2017 The tidal bore of the Garonne River (France) was investigated on 29 August, 31 August and 27 October 2015, during which instantaneous velocity measurements were performed continuously at high-frequency (200 Hz). The tidal bore occurrence had a marked effect on the flow field and turbulent Reynolds stress data, indicating large shear stresses, together ...

Tidal bore dynamics in funnel‐shaped estuaries [PDF]
Journal 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 ...

Evolution of tidal flats influenced by tidal bores and runoff in the Qiantang Estuary, China
Shui kexue jinzhanTidal flats provide crucial ecosystem services and coastal protection. Comprehending the evolution of tidal flats, influenced by tidal bores and runoff, is key to protecting these environments in the Qiantang Estuary′s tidal bore zones.

Atmospheric noise of a breaking tidal bore [PDF]
The 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. The sounds generated by breaking tidal bores were herein investigated in the field (Qiantang River) and in laboratory.
