Tidal forcing, energetics, and mixing near the Yermak Plateau [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Science, 2015
The Yermak Plateau (YP), located northwest of Svalbard in Fram Strait, is the final passage for the inflow of warm Atlantic Water into the Arctic Ocean. The region is characterized by the largest barotropic tidal velocities in the Arctic Ocean.

Lagrangian measurements of turbulent dissipation over a shallow tidal flat from pulse coherent Acoustic Doppler Profilers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We present high resolution (25 mm spatial, 8 Hz temporal) profiles of velocity measured over a shallow tidal flat using pulse-coherent Acoustic Doppler Profilers mounted on surface drifters.

Wave dissipation by flexible vegetation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Dissipation of waves propagating through natural salt marsh vegetation was about half the dissipation expected for rigid vegetation. This low dissipation was predicted by a theoretical model that accounts for bending of vegetation by wave motions.

ENERGY DISSIPATION IN TIDAL ESTUARIES

open access: yesCoastal Engineering Proceedings, 1976
In this study, the method for damped co-oscillating tides is used to evaluate damping and energy dissipation characteristics for various estuaries of different geometry and depth. Of special interest are the damping and energy dissipation characteristics of the German tidal rivers such as Elbe, Weser and Ems in comparison with North-American tidal ...

Possible tidal dissipation in millisecond pulsar binaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The post-Keplerian(PK) parameters inferred from pulsar timing provide a convenient way to test Einstein's general theory of relativity. However, before obtaining a pure orbital decay $\dot{P}_b$ induced by gravitational wave radiation, which is one of ...

The Impact of Topographic Steepness on Tidal Dissipation at Bumpy Topography

open access: yesFluids, 2017
Breaking internal waves are an important contributor to mixing in the stratified ocean interior. We use two-dimensional, nonhydrostatic numerical simulations to examine the breaking of internal waves generated by tidal flow over sinusoidal bottom ...

Late Pleistocene evolution of tides and tidal dissipation: dissipation data

open access: yes, 2023
<p>These .mat files contain the dissipation files calculated in Wilmes et al. (2023) Late Pleistocene evolution of tides and tidal dissipation. For details on how dissipation was calculated and the simulation details see the paper. </p>

Energy potential of a tidal fence deployed near a coastal headland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Enhanced tidal streams close to coastal headlands appear to present ideal locations for the deployment of tidal energy devices. In this paper, the power potential of tidal streams near an idealized coastal headland with a sloping seabed is investigated ...

Inelastic Collision Influencing the Rotational Dynamics of a Non-Rigid Asteroid (of Rubble Pile Type)

open access: yesMathematics, 2023
We have considered here a novel particular model for dynamics of a non-rigid asteroid rotation, assuming the added mass model instead of the concept of Viscoelastic Oblate Rotators to describe the physically reasonable response of a ‘rubble pile ...

Global patterns of diapycnal mixing from measurements of the turbulent dissipation rate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The authors present inferences of diapycnal diffusivity from a compilation of over 5200 microstructure profiles. As microstructure observations are sparse, these are supplemented with indirect measurements of mixing obtained from (i) Thorpe-scale ...
