A Morphodynamic Modeling Study on the Formation of the Large-Scale Radial Sand Ridges in the Southern Yellow Sea

TL;DR: The radial sand ridges (RSRs) in the Southern Yellow Sea, China, are morphologically striking because of the remarkable size and radial planar orientation, standing out as a unique coastal geomorphology among the worldwide sand ridge systems.

Modeling storm effects on sand wave dynamics

TL;DR: In this paper, two new process-based idealized sand wave models have been developed that include these storm-related processes investigated in this paper, which can be used for applications such as sand mining, nautical dredging, wind farms and pipelines.

Modelling the immediate penetration of rock particles in soft clay during subsea rock installation, using a flexible fallpipe vessel.

TL;DR: In this article, a model is presented to predict single stone penetration in very soft clay, based on existing static bearing capacity formulae and validated using laboratory experiments, and the measured and calculated processes suggest that all the right processes are taken into account.

Seasonal variations of the salinity and turbidity in the Brisbane River estuary, Queensland, Australia

TL;DR: Yu et al. as mentioned in this paper examined ten-year field data to investigate the seasonal variations in salinity and turbidity in the Brisbane River estuary, and found that the salinity at the mouth was estimated to be 317 and 328 ppt during wet and dry seasons, respectively.
