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.

Dynamics and thermodynamics of the fast and slow Madden–Julian Oscillation
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.The results of this study highlight the MJO as a complex phenomenon, the behavior of which is driven by an interplay of thermodynamic and dynamic processes. The MJO's distinct speeds are controlled by different mechanisms: slow MJOs propagate eastward primarily via horizontal moisture advection, fast MJOs by vertical moisture advection.

Evaluation of tidal bores effects of Persian Gulf on the stage-discharge curve of the Karun River [PDF]
, 2014 The rivers that pour to seas and oceans are known as tidal rivers. A governing factor on tidal rivers is tidal bores which are produced by the gravity of moon and sun. Reflection of waves from beaches and the shape of beaches and effects of shallow water,

Science Education, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Educating youth about environmental and climate justice is crucial in realizing a sustainable and flourishing future. Yet this can be challenging given the intense eco‐emotions youth experience and express while learning about these consequential realities and their implications.

Tidal bores, Aegir, Eagre, Mascaret, Pororoca: theory and observations [PDF]
, 2012 A tidal bore is a series of waves propagating upstream as the tidal flow turns to rising. It forms during spring tide conditions when the tidal range exceeds 4 to 6 m and the flood tide is confined to a narrow funnelled estuary.

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

Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.Autonomous recording units (ARUs) are increasingly used for passive acoustic monitoring, but deploying them in remote or inaccessible locations remains challenging. We developed and field‐tested a lightweight, low‐cost floating platform for drone‐assisted deployment and retrieval of ARUs in wetland interiors.

Mobile consumers influence the shoreward edge of intertidal seagrass ecosystems
Journal 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.

Gender &History, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This article examines the militarization of white settler women during the Kenya Emergency (1952–1960), analyzing how their armed participation disrupted and reconfigured colonial gender norms. Drawing on visual and textual archival and newspaper sources, this article explores representations of settler women as maternal guardians of the ...
