Wave Breaking and Turbulence at a Tidal Inlet: Shoals, Currents, & Winds
Field measurements of waves, currents, winds, and turbulence collected from surface drifters at New River Inlet (NC) are used to characterize wave breaking. Breaking regions are identified along drifter tracks by three ... -
Wave Breaking Dissipation in a Fetch-Limited Sea
(2013-04-17)Coupled remote sensing and <italic>in situ</italic> measurements of strongly-forced, fetch-limited waves are applied to assess the role of breaking in an evolving wavefield. Wave growth follows accepted fetch-limited ... -
Wave-supported gravity currents in continental shelves
Wave-supported gravity currents (WSGC) are one of the most important processes causing cross shelf sediment transport. This dissertation studies the physics behind WSGC in continental shelves using experimental observations. ... -
Where and When Does Streamflow Regulation Significantly Affect Climate Change Outcomes in the Columbia River Basin?
The Columbia River basin is a large transboundary basin located in the Pacific Northwest, straddling the US-Canadian border. The basin spans seven US states and one Canadian province, encompassing a diverse range of ... -
Wind and wave-influenced mixing and dynamics in the Fraser River plume
Rivers play a large role in the transport of matter between ecosystems by connecting interior regions with lakes and oceans. River outflows, or plumes, constitute a significant delivery mechanism of pollutants, sediment, ... -
Wireless Parking Detection System Based on Sensor Fusion and IoT Communication
With the constant growths of the automotive industry, traffic problems especially the parking problem is increasingly prominent. Currently, many parking facilities do not have enough capacity to support travelers’ parking ...
