Studying the mixing of riverine freshwater and coastal water is the fundamental step to further understand the balance of a coastal/estuarine ecosystem (e.g., Hickey et al. 2010), seabed properties, sediment budgets (Gelfenbaum & Kaminsky 2010), and the sustainable management of the fluvial-estuary habitat (e.g., damming, dredging). The nearfield of a river plume represents an energetic environ...

This study examines the pattern of accentual lengthening (AL) over four-syllable mono-morphemic words in Standard Chinese (SC). I show that 1) the domain of AL in SC is best characterized as the constituent that is under focus; 2) the distribution of AL over a focused domain is non-uniform and there is a strong tendency of edge effect with the last syllable lengthened the most; and 3) different...

Abstract Precise cosmic web classification of observed galaxies in massive spectroscopic surveys can be either highly uncertain or computationally expensive. As an alternative, we explore a fast Machine Learning-based approach to infer the underlying dark matter tidal environment galaxy distribution from its β -skeleton graph. We develop and test our methodology using cosmological magnetohydrod...

We consider a model of the state evolution of relativistic vector bosons, which includes both the dynamical equations for the particle four-velocity and the equations for the polarization four-vector evolution in the field of a nonlinear plane gravitational wave. In addition to the gravitational minimal coupling, tidal forces linear in curvature tensor are suggested to drive the particle state ...

Movement of liquor constituents from animal-waste lagoons has the potential to degrade ground water quality. The depth of movement and concentrations of lagoon-liquor constituents in the soil underlying three cattle (Bos taurus)-waste retention lagoons and one swine (Sus scrofa)-waste lagoon were determined. Samples were taken by using a direct-push coring machine, dissected by depth, and analy...

This work proposes to compare the astronomical tidal predictions obtained by using totality of constituents provided seven global tide models and Center for Topographic studies Ocean Hydrosphere (CTOH). To quantify this comparison, variance residuals satellite sea level heights are computed from 1992 2019, each model CTOH. As a case study, we focus on Patagonian shelf. It is found that most acc...

The broad objective of this project has been to extend our understanding on the role of large scale offshore forcing, including baroclinic tides, in nearshore dynamics. From this understanding we aim to develop modeling approaches that, combined with offshore baroclinic models, can account for the effects of offshore internal wave forcing on the circulation and sediment transport in the coastal...
