Varying flow division forced by streamflow and tidal force in bifurcation channels in the Pearl River Delta, South China

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
River bifurcations are crucial in distributing water, sediment, and flood hazards within river networks. This study established an idealized Delft3D model to investigate the individual and combined impacts of streamflow, tidal amplitude, and river length

Environmental Statecraft, Fragmented Authoritarianism, and Technocratic Governance: The Structure and Agency of China's Local Environmental Politics

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Local environmental politics in China is often said to be dominated by state‐controlled modes of multi‐level governance. However, top‐down governance is embedded within and transformed by local politics, adding complexity to governance practices and environmental outcomes.

Estimating Coastal Lagoon Tidal Flooding and Repletion with Multidate ASTER Thermal Imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2012
Coastal lagoons mix inflowing freshwater and tidal marine waters in complex spatial patterns. This project sought to detect and measure temperature and spatial variability of flood tides for a constricted coastal lagoon using multitemporal remote sensing.

Freshwater Composition and Connectivity of the Connecticut River Plume During Ambient Flood Tides

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The Connecticut River plume interacts with the strong tidal currents of the ambient receiving waters in eastern Long Island Sound. The plume formed during ambient flood tides is studied as an example of tidal river plumes entering into energetic ambient ...

Bryozoan‐Rich Carbonate Units of the Erfoud Area (SE Morocco) Record Latest Katian to Early Hirnantian Interglacial Intervals

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
In this study, we re‐examine the depositional architecture of the Erfoud limestone in Morocco. Introducing new biostratigraphic constraints from chitinozoan assemblages, we show that Katian to Hirnantian bryozoan‐pelmatozoan meadows reflect flooding events linked to a series of interglacial transgressions known to have occurred immediately prior to the

Application of Fluvial-12 model for calculation of maximum deformation in cross sections of tidal rivers (the Karun River in Iran)

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Technology, 2019
In tidal rivers design return period is multiplication of return periods of floods and tidal flows. This research considers the down stream of the Karun River in southwest of Iran as case study.
