Copper Contamination in the Sediments of Northern Kaohsiung Harbor, Taiwan
The distribution, enrichment, accumulation, and potential ecological risk of copper (Cu) in the surface sediments of northern Kaohsiung Harbor, Taiwan were investigated. Sediment samples from 12 locations of northern Kaohsiung Harbor were collected and characterized for Cu, aluminum, water content, organic matter, total nitrogen, total phosphorous, total grease and grain size. Results showed th...
متن کاملPreliminary investigation of a novel breakwater combining coastal defence and energy generation for near shore environments
This paper presents the concept and initial tank testing of a novel low profile floating breakwater incorporating energy generation. The breakwater is intended to be anchored parallel to the coast with a beach at the front of the device to rotate the incoming waves towards collector tubes. The water hammer principle is used to harvest the high water particle velocities, charging a rear mounted ...
متن کاملShore protection by oblique seabed bars
Shore protection by small seabed bars was once considered possible because seafloor undulations strongly reflect surface waves of twice the wavelength by the so-called Bragg resonance mechanism. The idea, however, proved “unreliable” when Yu & Mei (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 404, 2000, pp. 251-268) showed that a patch of longshore seabed bars adjacent to a reflective shore could result in larger wave...
متن کاملDistributed Data Fusion and Maritime Domain Awareness for Harbor Protection
Protecting a harbor against intentional and accidental threats is extremely difficult. Harbors are not closed systems. Rather, they are focal points for the movement of people and cargo, both in land and on water. As such, threats can arise from many sources that range from the smuggling of illegal and dangerous goods to the placement of mines to damage or destroy shipping. To detect the many d...
متن کاملInspection and Diagnosis of Sines’ West Breakwater
A set of tools that is being developed for the automated inspection of rubble-mound breakwaters, as well as its application to the survey of Sines' west breakwater armour layer, are described. The results from the IRIS surveys are compared to those of the surveys carried out by the Portuguese Hydrographic Institute and first assessment of the structure evolution between 2000 and 2003 is made.
