Results show that heterogeneity coupled with tides creates transient preferential flow paths within the intertidal zone, evolving multiple circulation cells and fingering-type salinity distributions. Due to heterogeneity, strain-dominated (intense mixing) and vorticity-dominated (low mixing) flow regions ...
The water level of oceans rises and falls alternately twice a day. This movement of water is called the tide. Tides are causer by the pull of the sun and the moon on the earth' s surface; since the moon is closer it affects the tides more than the sun. When the moon is directly ...
What causes tides? How does wind energy affect the carbon cycle? What effect does precipitation have on the water cycle? How is the spring equinox determined? How does the rock cycle affect the Earth? What natural factors can affect the water cycle? How do tsunamis affect the lithosphere? Wh...
"The moon may act as a synchronizing cue between individuals, as a cue for other environmental parameters — spring tides, food availability — or simply allow animals to use vision," said Noga Kronfeld-Schor, a biologist at Tel Aviv University and co-author on the report. "The behaviors it...
Hydrodynamics, sediment transport, and vegetation dynamics are simulated using the numerical framework Coupled Ocean‐Atmosphere‐Wave‐Sediment Transport in the Barnegat Bay‐Little Egg Harbor system, USA. We show that salt marsh erosion influences the propagation of tides into back‐barrier basins, ...
