Spectral wave dissipation over a barrier reef
Ryan J. Lowe,James L. Falter,Marion D. Bandet,Geno Pawlak,Marlin J. Atkinson,Stephen G. Monismith,Jeffrey R. Koseff +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, a 2-week field experiment was conducted to measure surface wave dissipation on a barrier reef at Kaneohe Bay, Oahu, Hawaii, where wave heights and velocities were measured at several locations on the fore reef and the reef flat, which were used to estimate rates of dissipation by wave breaking and bottom friction.
Journal ArticleDOI
High frequency temperature variability reduces the risk of coral bleaching.
Aryan Safaie,Nyssa J. Silbiger,Tim R. McClanahan,Geno Pawlak,Daniel J. Barshis,James L. Hench,Justin S. Rogers,Gareth J. Williams,Kristen A. Davis +8 more
TL;DR: In- situ data is used to show that bleaching is lower globally at reef habitats with greater diurnal temperature variability, suggesting that reefs with greater high-frequency temperature variability may represent particularly important opportunities to conserve coral ecosystems against the major threat posed by warming ocean temperatures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Form Drag and Mixing Due to Tidal Flow past a Sharp Point
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present model and observational estimates of the components of drag for Three Tree Point, a sloping ridge projecting 1 km into Puget Sound, Washington, in both observations and numerical simulations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vortex dynamics in a spatially accelerating shear layer
Geno Pawlak,Laurence Armi +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental and analytical study into the vortex dynamics of a stratified shear layer subjected to a spatial acceleration is presented, in which the core of the growing vortex is separated from the vorticity source at the interface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stratified Flow along a Corrugated Slope: Separation Drag and Wave Drag
Parker MacCready,Geno Pawlak +1 more
TL;DR: Lee wave generation and horizontal flow separation in stratified flow along a slope, with corrugations or a ridge running directly downslope, are explored using analytical and numerical methods in this article.
