Estuaries are important sediment facies in the fluvial-to-marine transition zone, are strongly controlled by dynamic interactions of tides, waves, and fluvial flows, and show various changes in depositional processes and sediment distribution. Deep inves...

Managing industrial processes in real-time is challenging due to the nonlinearity and sensitivity of these processes. This unpredictability can cause delays in the regulation of these processes. The PID controller family is commonly used in these situati...

The southward propagation of cold-air frontal boundaries into the Gulf of Mexico region initiates a cascade of coupled air?sea processes that manifests along the coastlines as an apparent brightness anomaly in the ocean color signals. Our hypothesis is t...
