Reconnaissance Investigation of Caribbean Extreme Wave Deposits – Preliminary Observations, Interpretations, and Research Directions
Cover photograph – Panorama view on the north coast of Bonaire at Boka Kokolishi in March 2006 showing (from left to right), Caribbean Sea, modern sea cliff, scattered boulders and sand deposits on an elevated rock platform, and a paleo-seacliff. Wave swept zone and fresh sand deposits were products of Hurricane Ivan in September 2004. SUMMARY This report presents an overview of preliminary geo...
متن کاملO-8: Some Variations of the TSSK2 Gene May be Associated with Impaired Spermatogenesis
Background: Tssk2, a member of the testis specific serine/threonine kinase (TSSK) family, is expressed predominantly in the testis and crucial for the formation and function of the sperm cells in mouse. Targeted deletion of Tssk1 and 2 in male chimeric mice caused infertility due to haploinsufficiency of the genes. Therefore it is reasonable to postulate that mutations in its human homologue TS...
متن کاملModeling and Simulation of Tsunami and Storm Surge Hydrodynamic Loads on Coastal Bridge Structures
Bridge structures along the coasts are often subjected to hydrodynamics loads of various forms and intensities. The most dramatic loads are those due to tsunamis and storm surges as vividly demonstrated by images of the Dec. 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami and the Sept. 2005 Katrina Hurricane in the Gulf of Mexico. Other loads include wave impact, current induced scour, and floating debris impact. Th...
متن کاملDynamics of tsunami waves
The life of a tsunami is usually divided into three phases: the generation (tsunami source), the propagation and the inundation. Each phase is complex and often described separately. A brief description of each phase is given. Model problems are identified. Their formulation is given. While some of these problems can be solved analytically, most require numerical techniques. The inundation phas...
متن کاملInflation from Tsunami-waves
We investigate inflation driven by the evolution of highly excited quantum states within the framework of out of equilibrium field dynamics. These states are characterized by a nonperturbatively large number of quanta in a band of momenta but with vanishing expectation value of the scalar field. They represent the situation in which initially a non-perturbatively large energy density is localiz...
