SWIMMING AGAINST THE FLOW: A ROBOTICS SIMULATION FRAMEWORK
Fish in nature take advantage of some types of turbulence and even generate it to swim with a minimum expenditure of energy. This is the case observed in rainbow trout swimming against the flow in well patterned turbulence phenomenon called Karman Street.

Abstract Coastal inundation occurs when the total height of mean sea level (MSL), tide, and surge, including subsequent propagation into estuaries, exceeds a given threshold. We developed a nonparametric Joint Probability of Maxima Method and applied to four major Australian estuaries, deriving frequency‐based exceedance thresholds and quantifying the ...
