Seasonal variations of tidal currents in the deep Timor Passage
Exact knowledge on the seasonal variations of main tidal constituents is beneficial for improving tidal prediction. The semi-annual cycles in K1 and S2 tides are abnormally exaggerated by astronomical P1 and K2 tides, which interferes with our ...

What can seabirds tell us about the tide? [PDF]
Small global positioning system (GPS) trackers are now routinely used to study the movement and behaviour of birds at sea. If the birds rest on the water they become “drifters of opportunity” and can be used to give information about surface currents. In

A coupled wave–tide–circulation model is used to investigate wave–current interactions (WCIs) over the shelf waters of the Northwest Atlantic (NWA) during Hurricane Earl (2010). WCIs have substantial impacts on hydrodynamics in the upper ocean.

Current structure in the Rhine region of freshwater influence [PDF]
Observation with HF radar, ADCPs and conventional current meters in the Rhine ROFI system in the North Sea indicate that the dominant currents are due to tidal flow, with important contributions from winds and density-driven circulation.

Surface currents in the Porsanger fjord in northern Norway
We describe surface currents in the Porsanger fjord (Porsangerfjorden) located in the European Arctic in the vicinity of the Barents Sea. Our analysis is based on surface current data collected in the summer of 2014 using High Frequency (WERA, Helzel ...

Tidal energy extraction modifies tidal asymmetry and transport in a shallow, well-mixed estuary
Tidal energy extraction is increasingly being studied as a potential renewable energy resource in estuaries worldwide. Although it is understood that energy extraction via tidal stream turbines can modify currents and transport within estuaries, it is ...

Tidal dynamics on the North Patagonian Argentinean Gulfs [PDF]
Semidiurnal (M2, S2, N2 and K2), diurnal (K1,O1 and P1) and quarter-diurnal (M4, MN4 and MS4) barotropic tides over the North Patagonian Gulfs of Argentina: San Matías, (SMG), Nuevo (NG) and San José (SJG) are examined using a regional numerical model ...

Sand‐Mud Tidal Flat Morphodynamics Influenced by Alongshore Tidal Currents
Tidal flats, where significant land‐ocean interactions take place, are often abstracted as a cross‐shore bed profile with sediment zonation from the lower sand flat to the upper mud flat.

Transient fluctuation theorems for the currents and initial equilibrium ensembles [PDF]
We prove a transient fluctuation theorem for the currents for continuous-time Markov jump processes with stationary rates, generalizing an asymptotic result by Andrieux and Gaspard [J. Stat. Phys. 127, 107 (2007)] to finite times.

Spatiotemporal Prediction of Tidal Currents Using Gaussian Processes
Predicting fast tidal currents can be a challenging task. Unlike tidal water levels, currents can vary sharply over short distances. The classical approach of harmonic analysis can analyze data at point locations and there is a need for a method that can
