Climate changes influence lake hydrodynamics and radiation levels and thus may affect the fate and transport of waterborne pathogens in lakes. This study examines the impact of climate change on the fate, transport, and associated risks of four waterborne ...

Reservoir sedimentation is one of the main challenges in the sustainable operation of large reservoirs because it causes volume loss, affecting hydropower production capacity, dam safety, and flood management. To ensure the sustainability of deep reservoir ...

CRC Press/Balkema2023

Sandy beaches in estuaries and bays (BEBs) are common landforms on the coasts of many major cities. They exist under a wide range of settings and their morphology is controlled by their distance from the estuary/bay entrance, exposure to different types of ...

Steady free-surface flows around buildings occurring during flood or tsunami events can produce major damages and a quantification of the post-peak forces is essential for safety and resilience of coastal structures. The loading process is highly affected ...

Upstream Erosion and Sediment Passage at Piano Key Weirs

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Ivan Stojnic

Piano key weirs (PKWs) are a weir type characterized by an effective rating curve. Accordingly, this control structure is primarily applied at dams to increase the spillway capacity. In recent years, PKWs also have been implemented in rivers combined with ...

Monthly to decadal evolution of sandy beaches in the Pittwater estuary

Vincent Henri De Staercke

Even if the total length of shorelines in low-wave environments like bays, sounds, lagoons and estuaries greatly exceed that of open-ocean coasts, the morphodynamics of such systems are poorly understood. Only few studies developed models to predict change ...

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 ...

The erosion of a surface by a sediment-laden flow is an inherently multiscale phenomenon which includes physical interactions covering many orders of magnitude in both length and time scales. Conforming to the nature of the problem, we propose a novel mult ...

Hardy Red Sea corals hold out hope for world’s dying reefs Coral reefs in the Gulf of Aqaba may survive global warming, and could one day be used to re-seed parts of the world where reefs are dying

Impacts of wave and tidal forcing on 3D nearshore processes on natural beaches. Part II. Sediment transport

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar

This is the second of two papers on the 3D numerical modeling of nearshore hydro- and morphodynamics. In Part I, the focus was on surf and swash zone hydrodynamics in the cross-shore and longshore directions. Here, we consider nearshore processes with an e ...
