The rivers/channels in question are given voice in the introduction and ideas of the ecologies of mouths and river mouths, particularly those tidal, are explored in the following sections. Aspects of polyvocality and deep mapping are employed to reveal the unique characteristics of these places-...
Concentrations of Chl a were highest in Elbe and Ems River mouths (no data for Weser River mouth; Fig. 2e). Lower values were found in the North Fri- sian region and offshore (Fig. 2e). Relative humic- like FDOM fluorescence was highest in the estuar- ies and decreased off...
The Bay is shallow, most of it having a depth of 8–20 m, and is generally sandy, with mud common near the mouths of the rivers which drain into the Bay (Silva et al., 1993). Show abstract Assessment of the potential of renewables for Brunei Darussalam 2011, Renewable and Sustainable...
To mitigate climate change, a transformation of the energy sector towards a low-emission power generation is necessary. Tidal energy technology has matured in recent years and has the potential to balance Europe’s future power grid. While reviews of the tidal energy resource exist for a number ...
TRAINING WORK AT THE MOUTH OF TIDAL INLET FOR PROTECTION OF APPROACH CHANNEL TO FISHING HARBOR Fishing harbours in India are mostly located in the tidal inlets, which provide natural shelter to the fishing boats. However, siltation near the mouths of tidal inlets and rivers is a perennial prob...
An operational monitoring of suspended particulate matter (SPM) concentrations in estuaries and river plumes is thus necessary to improve sediment transport and ecosystem modeling, with a final goal to prevent long-term damage to coastal waters. Fluxes of SPM at river mouths are spatially and ...
Tidal bore, body of water that, during exceptionally high sea tides, rushes up some rivers and estuaries near a coast where there is a large tidal range and the incoming tide is confined to a narrow channel. Traveling upstream about two or three times as
4. Tidal rivers with a high priority for conservation were identified by overlapping the candidates for three scenarios. These tidal rivers are not necessarily large, but have steep basins with river mouths that are less exposed to ocean waves. Moreover, the percentage of artificial areas in ...
Some tidal inlets coincide with the mouths of rivers (estuaries) but in these cases inlet dimensions and sediment transport trends are still governed, to a large extent, by the volume of water exchanged at the inlet mouth (tidal prism) and the reversing tidal currents, respectively. Tidal ...
This is because it was developed based on the example of mouths of large rivers and does not take into account the specifics of ecosystems in the mouths of small rivers. They may change the spatial pattern of alternating turbid, chemical, and biological "traffic jams." Attention is drawn to...
