A Numerical Simulation of a Tidal Bore Flow [PDF]

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Journal, 2010
A numerical model was developed based on the Cubic-Interpolated Pseudo-particle (CIP) Combined Unified Procedure (CIP-CUP or C-CUP) method equipped with a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) model and a re...

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

The Tidal Bore in the Trent [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 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.

A Comparative Study on the Irrigation Suitability of Kerala's Rivers Using Fuzzy AHP and Conventional Methods

open access: yesIrrigation 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.

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 ...

Sedimentary signatures of tidal bores: a brief synthesis [PDF]

open access: yesGeo-Marine Letters, 2016
This article aims at presenting a brief synthesis of sedimentary signatures assigned to tidal bore dynamics and impacts. According to the few studies published until now on tidal bore-induced facies within inner estuarine tidal channel infilling successions, only two major signatures can be reported: (1) soft sediment deformations (SSDs) due to ...

Holocene palaeoenvironmental reconstruction of sea level, coastal and vegetation changes along the southern Solway Firth, United Kingdom

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Holocene relative sea level (RSL) changes were reconstructed from four sites along the less‐studied southern Solway Firth. A multiproxy approach, including lithostratigraphical and biostratigraphical analyses, combined with radiocarbon dating, produced ten sea level index points (SLIPs).
