The lateral bathymetry in the estuary results in different degrees of tidal mixing asymmetry, which has significant impacts on the longitudinal sediment transport by changing the temporal variation of vertical eddy diffusion. This study focus on the late...

Upwelling is a widespread phenomenon in the ocean and plays key roles in the marine environment, marine fishery and air?sea carbon exchange. In coastal regions, the upwelling is usually modulated by tides and complex topography, but the dynamical mechani...

Stratification and mixing of the water column is an important dynamic process in the estuary, which plays a significant role in the estuarine circulation, mass transport and energy exchange. Based on the multi-station synchronous observation data from 26...

As a ubiquitous movement in the ocean, tides are vital for marine life and numerous marine activities such as fishing and ocean engineering. Tidal dynamics are complicated in the East Asian marginal seas (EAMS) due to changing complex topography and coas...

The salt-fresh water mixing is one of the basic topics of estuarine dynamics research. In partially mixed and highly stratified mixed estuaries, the structure of stratified flow is complicated by density gradient and tidal reciprocating flow. The velocit...

Sediment transport is a key element in intertidal beach morphodynamics, but measurements of sediment transport are often unreliable. The aim of this study is to quantify and investigate cross-shore sediment transport and the resulting topographic changes...

A recently validated 3-dimensional implementation of the Environmental Fluid Dynamic Code (EFDC) for the tidal-fresh portions of the Delaware Estuary was exercised against the results of a dye release from a sewer outfall during a storm. The influence on...

The performance of three turbulence closure schemes (TCSs), the generic length scale scheme (GLS), the Mellor?Yamada 2.5 scheme (MY2.5) and the K-profile parameterization scheme (KPP), embedded in the ocean model ROMS, was compared with attention to the ...

In this study, total organic carbon (TOC), total nitrogen (TN), and stable carbon isotopes (d13C) were measured in surface intertidal saltmarsh and bare tidal flat sediments along the Rudong coast. The distribution and sources of organic carbon were exam...

Over the past few decades, the topography and river-tide-salt dynamic characteristics of the Pearl River Delta (PRD) have undergone a myriad of changes due to the unnatural evolution process induced by diverse human activities, such as dam construction, ...

Among the 135 or more estuaries on the southeast Australian coastline, 45% are intermittently open. A number of others, which would normally have an intermittently open entrance, are kept permanently open to improve the flushing and water quality that ar...

Using a nonhydrostatic numerical model, this work demonstrates that onshore winds are a principal agent of overturning and vigorous vertical mixing in nearshore water of lakes and inner continental shelves. On short (superinertial) timescales of a few ho...

The features of coastal upwelling in the southwestern Yellow Sea were investigated based on oceanology data from a research cruise and a regional circulation model. The observation data suggest that a relatively colder and saltier water core exists from ...
