Modeling Study on Key Factors Related to Changes in Sea Fog Formation on the Western Coast of the Korean Peninsula

Atmosphere
A notable decline in the frequency of sea fog inflows and an increase in low-cloud ceiling height were observed following the construction of the Saemangeum Seawall west of the Gunsan Airport, an area traditionally prone to frequent sea fog events.

Development of the instrumentation of the botafoc breakwater nº 8 caisson [PDF]

, 2008
Balearic Port Authority has developed an instrumentation system for the #8 caisson of the Botafoc breakwater that integrates 12 pressure sensors located at three surfaces, two in contact with the sea water and another with the bottom.

Pollution to Solution: Understanding and Addressing Microplastic Contamination in the Environment

Environmental Quality Management, Volume 35, Issue 3, Spring 2026.
ABSTRACT In general, plastic pollution results from the unintentional release of macroplastic materials into the environment as well as the deliberate production and usage of small plastic particles (micro‐ and nano‐sized plastic particles) in a variety of consumer products micro and nanoplastics in filtrate freshwater and marine environments because ...

Field testing and numerical modeling of vehicle-induced vibrations on an ancient seawall via an approach slab

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Yanguan Ancient Seawall at the Qiantang River estuary is a nationally protected cultural heritage and an in-service flood defense. Construction activities, such as vehicle crossings, pose risks of vibration-induced damage to this aging structure.

A pressure impulse theory for hemispherical liquid impact problems

, 2017
Liquid impact problems for hemispherical fluid domain are considered. By using the concept of pressure impulse we show that the solution of the flow induced by the impact is reduced to the derivation of Laplace's equation in spherical coordinates with ...

Tide‐Modulated Ocean‐to‐Earth Energy Conversion Quantified With Coastal Fiber Sensing

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Quantifying how incident ocean waves transfer energy into seismic surface waves along the nearshore is essential for understanding coastal hazards and Earth–ocean coupling, yet time‐resolved in situ estimates have been scarce. Here we use a beach‐deployed distributed acoustic sensing array co‐located with an ocean‐bottom node to directly ...

Habitat enhancing marine structures: Creating habitat in urban waters [PDF]

, 2010
Although maritime regions support a large portion of the world’s human population, their value as habitat for other species is overlooked. Urban structures that are built in the marine environment are not designed or managed for the habitat they ...

When Rain Meets Surge: Assessing Future Typhoon‐Driven Compound Flood Hazard Profiles in a Rapidly Urbanizing Delta

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Typhoon‐induced Compound Flood (TCF), driven by the combined impact of extreme rainfall and increasing coastal water level (CWL), poses a substantial threat to urban safety. This study presents a framework for assessing the future compound flood hazard profiles in a coastal megacity in the Delta region of southern China.

A Case Study of the Behaviour of a Vertical Seawall

Soils and Foundations, 2001
Reclamation is a major construction activity in Singapore, and this often entails the construction of a vertical seawall to contain the reclamation. In Singapore a frequently used technique is the use of L-Blocks. However, there are concerns about the movement and tilt of such relatively light blocks.
