Influence of a coarse interlayer on seawater intrusion and contaminant migration in coastal aquifers

David Andrew Barry

Vertical 2D slice laboratory experiments were carried out in homogenous and layered sand tanks to elucidate the effects of a highly permeable (coarse-grained sand) interlayer on seawater intrusion and transport of contaminants to a coastal sea. Tidal fluct ...

Tidal influence on soil conditions in an intertidal creek-marsh system

David Andrew Barry

To understand better how tides affect the soil conditions of salt marshes, pore-water flow in a modeled 3-D creek-marsh system was simulated under the influence of both monochromatic and spring-neap tides. In analyzing the simulation results, we examined s ...

Modelling of groundwater-vegetation interactions in a tidal marsh

David Andrew Barry

Wetting and drying due to tidal fluctuations affect soil conditions and hence plant growth in tidal marshes. Here, a coupled one-dimensional model was developed to simulate interacting groundwater flow and plant growth in these wetlands. The simulation res ...

Effects of soil stratigraphy on pore-water flow in a creek-marsh system

David Andrew Barry

In coastal marshes, low-permeability mud is often found overlying high permeability sandy deposits. A recently developed 3D creek-marsh model was used to investigate the effects of soil stratigraphy (a mud layer overlying a sandy-loam layer) on pore-water ...

An exactly solvable coarse-grained model for species diversity

Andrea Rinaldo, Samir Suweis, Amos Maritan

We present novel analytical results concerning ecosystem species diversity that stem from a proposed coarse-grained neutral model based on birth-death processes. The relevance of the problem lies in the urgency for understanding and synthesizing both theor ...

Tide-induced surface water and groundwater interactions in coastal wetlands

David Andrew Barry

Intertidal wetlands such as salt marshes are complex hydrological systems characterized by strong, dynamic interactions between coastal surface water and groundwater, driven particularly by tides. We simulated such interactions with a focus on 3D, variably ...

Tidally driven multiscale pore water flow in a creek-marsh system

David Andrew Barry

Intertidal wetlands are complex hydrological systems characterized by strong, dynamic interactions between coastal surface water and groundwater, driven particularly by tides. We simulated such interactions with a focus on three-dimensional, variably satur ...

The importance of being coupled: Stable states and catastrophic shifts in tidal biomorphodynamics

Andrea Rinaldo

We describe and apply a point model of the joint evolution of tidal landforms and biota which incorporates the dynamics of intertidal vegetation; benthic microbial assemblages; erosional, depositional, and sediment exchange processes; wind-wave dynamics, a ...

On the tidal prism–channel area relations

Andrea Rinaldo

We verify the broad applicability of tidal prism cross-sectional area relationships, originally proposed to relate the total water volume entering a lagoon during a characteristic tidal cycle (the tidal prism) to the size of its inlet, to arbitrary shelter ...

Effects of wave forcing on a subterranean estuary

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar, Clare Robinson

Wave and tide are important forcing factors that typically co-exist in coastal environments. A numerical study was conducted to investigate individual and combined effects of these forces on flow and mixing processes in a near-shore subterranean estuary. A ...
