Turbidity currents are important carriers for transporting terrestrial sediment into the deep sea, facilitating the transfer of matter and energy between land and the deep sea. Previous studies have suggested that turbidity currents can exhibit high velo...

The functionality of rivers and open diversion channels can be severely impacted when the epipelic algae group that grows on concrete inclined side walls, which are typical of urban rivers, joins the water flow. This study aims to increase the long-dista...

In sediment mechanics, the conditions for the onset of sediment movement are of particular importance. However, despite decades of research, questions remain unanswered. Thus, physical logic suggests that sediments move more easily on beds inclined in th...

Blowouts are integral features of coastal dune fields. Their presence enhances both geomorphological and ecological diversity and enables the movement of sand by wind. Their role as a ?transport corridor? may be, however, considered negative from a coast...

Submarine landslides are a global geohazard that can displace huge volumes of loose submarine sediment, thereby triggering enormous tsunami waves and causing a serious threat to coastal cities. To investigate the generation of submarine landslide tsunami...

Sedimentation can cause numerous problems in rivers, estuaries, harbors, and coastal areas. It is therefore important to trace and model the movement of sediments. The natural physical, chemical, and biological components of the aquatic sediment generall...

The numerical performance of a buoy-type wave energy converter (WEC) under regular wave conditions is described in this paper. The open-source computational fluid dynamics software OpenFOAM® was used to couple a grid for the solid body motion of the WEC,...

Heat has been widely used as a groundwater tracer to determine groundwater flow direction and velocity in a way that is ubiquitous, low-cost, environmentally friendly, and easy to use. However, temperature observations are generally short-term and small-...
