Pond fractals in a tidal flat [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2015 Studies over the past decade have reported power-law distributions for the areas of terrestrial lakes and Arctic melt ponds, as well as fractal relationships between their areas and coastlines. Here we report similar fractal structure of ponds in a tidal flat, thereby extending the spatial and temporal scales on which such phenomena have been observed ...

Influences of Tidal Flat and Thermal Discharge on Heat Dynamics in Xiangshan Bay
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Water temperature in estuaries is sensitive to thermal discharges and expansive tidal flats; as such, this parameter is essential in maintaining estuarine ecosystem. Semi-enclosed water bodies with poor water exchange easily accumulate heat.
