A detailed seabed signature from Hurricane Sandy revealed in bedforms and scour
[1] On 30 October 2012, Hurricane Sandy made landfall near Brigantine New Jersey bringing widespread erosion and damage to the coastline. We have obtained a unique set of high-resolution before and after storm measurements of seabed morphology and in situ hydrodynamic conditions (waves and currents) capturing the impact of the storm at an inner continental shelf field site known as the ‘‘Redbir...
متن کاملBedforms and Mine Burial
The generation and migration of bedforms (eg, ripples, megaripples and sand bars) on sandy bottoms in the nearshore (0-8 m water depths) provides a mechanism for objects on the seafloor to become buried. As a bedform migrates past a mine, the mine will fall to the low point of the bedform trough before subsequently being buried by the passage of the following bedform crest. The statistics of mi...
متن کاملLong-term displacement of intertidal seagrass and mussel beds by expanding large sandy bedforms in the northern Wadden Sea
a r t i c l e i n f o On aerial photographs, sandy tidal flats display (1) large sandy bedforms (N10 m long, N 3 m wide), indicating effects of strong hydrodynamics on sediment relief, and (2) beds of seagrass and mussels, indicating stable sediment conditions. These physical and biogenic structures have been mapped from aerial photographs taken in a back-barrier tidal basin of the North Sea co...
متن کاملHigh-resolution stratigraphy of the Mediterranean outflow contourite system in the Gulf of Cadiz during the late Pleistocene: The impact of Heinrich events
A detailed, high-resolution stratigraphic analysis of the Mediterranean Outflow contourite system at the continental slope of the Gulf of Cadiz has been carried out through the correlation between a dense network of seismic reflection profiles (sparker, airgun, 3.75 kHz and parametric echosounder — TOPAS), Calypso giant piston and standard gravity cores. From such correlation we determine a sta...
متن کاملinvestigating the interaction of language knowledge and strategic competence in the performance of efl learners on reading-to-write and writing-only test tasks
این مطالعه به دو روش کمی و کیفی و با هدف بررسی استراتژی های فراشناختی فراگیران زبان انگلیسی به عنوان زبان خارجی در دو آزمون نوشتن و نوشتن ترکیبی انجام پذیرفت. در بخش کمی برای سنجش میزان استراتژی های فراشناختی از یک پرسشنامه که بر اساس مدل بکمن و پالمر (1996) ساخته شده بود استفاده شد. پایایی و روایی سازه ی پرسشنامه هنگام مطالعه ی پایلوت و روایی محتوای آن با جمع آوری نظرات نُه متخصص در رشته سنجیده...
