Effects of Unsaturated Flow on Salt Distributions in Tidally Influenced Coastal Unconfined Aquifers

Unsaturated flow influences both the seawater extent under steady-state conditions and the propagation of tides in coastal aquifers. However, its effects on salt distributions in tidally influenced coastal aquifers are little investigated. The present stud ...

Structural Response of ‘’La Jument’’ Lighthouse under Extreme Wave Loading – Analysis and Concept of Maintenance

Nizar Jaber

Ancient off-shore lighthouses have a phenomenal cultural significance. They were built as physical aid for navigation to guide mariners and to warn them from dangerous shallow rocky reefs. Understanding their structural response under waves loading is a ch ...

Estuarine tidal response to sea level rise: The significance of entrance restriction

Giovanni De Cesare, Steve Hottinger

Estuarine environments, as dynamic low-lying transition zones between rivers and the open sea, are vulnerable to sea level rise (SLR). To evaluate the potential impacts of SLR on estuarine responses, it is necessary to examine the altered tidal dynamics, i ...

Breaking of Internal Waves and Turbulent Dissipation in an Anticyclonic Mode Water Eddy

Bieito Fernandez Castro

A four-month glider mission was analyzed to assess turbulent dissipation in an anticyclonic eddy at the western boundary of the subtropical North Atlantic. The eddy (radius ≈ 60 km) had a core of low potential vorticity between 100–450 m, with maximum radi ...

Glacier retreat changes diurnal variation intensity and frequency of hydrologic variables in Alpine and Andean streams

Tom Ian Battin, Asa Lovisa Viktoria Horgby, Marta Boix Canadell, Nicolas Thomas Georges Escoffier

The impacts of glacier mass and area loss are assumed to affect stream hydrology and related ecosystems. We applied wavelet analysis to high frequency time series of discharge, conductivity, turbidity, air and water temperature in mountain streams influenc ...

Effects of entrance conditions on tidal hydrodynamics in idealized prismatic estuaries under sea level rise

Steve Hottinger

Understanding tidal hydrodynamics response to sea level rise (SLR) in estuaries is essential to predict future potential issues such as shoreline erosion, more frequent and intense flooding, coastal wetland threatening, and their economic and ecological as ...

Convection in Lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard

Lakes and other confined water bodies are not exposed to tides, and their wind forcing is usually much weaker compared to ocean basins and estuaries. Hence, convective processes are often the dominant drivers for shaping mixing and stratification structure ...

Temporal variability in thermally-driven cross-shore exchange: the role of semidiurnal tides

Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez

We examine temporal variability of thermally-driven baroclinic cross-shore exchange in the context of a tropical fringing reef system focusing on the role of tidally driven alongshore flow. Ensemble diurnal phase averaging of crossshore flow at the Kilo Na ...

Magnesium Partitioning Between Earth's Mantle and Core and its Potential to Drive an Early Exsolution Geodynamo

James Badro

Magnesium partitioning between metal and silicate was experimentally investigated between 34 and 138GPa, 3,500 and 5,450K using laser-heated diamond anvil cells. The 22 measurements are combined with previously published data (total of 49 measurements) to ...

Effects of non-uniform vertical constituent profiles on remote sensing reflectance of oligo- to mesotrophic lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Vincent Maurice Nouchi

We investigate the impact on remote sensing reflectance by the vertical non-uniformities of water constituents. Reflectance simulated for 210 pairs of in situ measured chlorophyll-a and turbidity profiles (z = 0–20 m) from Lake Geneva are compared to simul ...
