Galactic halo cusp-core: tidal compression in mergers [PDF]
We explain in simple terms how the buildup of dark haloes by merging compact satellites, as in the CDM cosmology, inevitably leads to an inner cusp of density profile $\rho \propto r^{-\alpha}$ with $\alpha \gsim 1$, as seen in cosmological N-body ...

Tidal flats are an important part of coastal ecosystems and play an important role in shoreline protection and biodiversity maintenance. Although many efforts have been made in tidal flat mapping, an accurate global tidal flat product covering all coasts

Energy Localization Invariance of Tidal Work in General Relativity [PDF]
It is well known that, when an external general relativistic (electric-type) tidal field E(t) interacts with the evolving quadrupole moment I(t) of an isolated body, the tidal field does work on the body (``tidal work'') -- i.e., it transfers energy to ...

The hydrodynamics of the southern basin of Tauranga Harbour [PDF]
The circulation of the southern basin of Tauranga Harbour was simulated using a 3-D hydrodynamic model ELCOM. A 9-day field campaign in 1999 provided data on current velocity, temperature and salinity profiles at three stations within the main basin. The

Advances in biogeomorphology of tidal flat-saltmarsh systems
As an important type of coastal wetlands, tidal flat-saltmarsh systems provide a variety of key ecosystem services for estuarine and coastal areas, and have important socio-economic and ecological values.

The Dataset of Sedimentary Environments at Hwangdo Tidal Flat on the Western Coast of Korea (2004 to 2013) [PDF]
The Hwangdo tidal flat has been subjected to local hydrodynamic changes caused by the construction of seawalls and bridges, which are changing the distribution of sediments and topographic characteristics.

Why haven't loose globular clusters collapsed yet? [PDF]
We report on the discovery of a surprising observed correlation between the slope of the low-mass stellar global mass function (GMF) of globular clusters (GCs) and their central concentration parameter c=log(r_t/r_c), i.e.
