Numerical study of sedimentary impact of a storm on a sand beach simulated by hydrodynamic and sedimentary models
− In marine coastal environments, storms have a major morphological impact on sand beaches. This study, part of the French Programme National d’Environnement Côtier, consisted in developing and applying hydrodynamic and sedimentary models to simulate the major processes that modify sand beaches. In order to study sediment dynamics, we developed three models to simulate waves, currents and sedim...
متن کاملA multi-beach study of Staphylococcus aureus, MRSA, and enterococci in seawater and beach sand.
Incidences of Staphylococcus aureus and methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA) have risen worldwide prompting a need to better understand routes of human exposure and whether standard bacterial water quality monitoring practices adequately account for this potential threat. Beach water and sand samples were analyzed during summer months for S. aureus, enterococci, and MRSA at three southern Cal...

متن کاملCoarsening of sand ripples in mass transfer models.
Coarsening of sand ripples is studied in a one-dimensional stochastic model, where neighboring ripples exchange mass with algebraic rates, Gamma(m) approximately m(gamma), and ripples of zero mass are removed from the system. For gamma<0, ripples vanish through rare fluctuations and the average ripple mass grows as (t) approximately -gamma(-1)ln(t). Temporal correlations decay as t(-1/2) or ...
متن کاملBeach dune sand hydrophobicity due to the presence of beach vitex ( Vitex rotundifolia L. f.).
Conservation and preservation concerns have led to efforts to understand mechanisms of invasiveness and the effects these mechanisms have on the environment. Vitex rotundifolia L. f. [beach vitex (BV)] was introduced as a salt-tolerant woody ground cover, but it has since become invasive on primary and secondary dunes in coastal areas of the southeastern United States. Much of its invasive pote...
