Breathing of coastal vadose zone induced by sea level fluctuations
[1] Tide-induced variations in subsurface air pressure, mainly between 1.0 to 2.0 kPa, are observed in coastal areas in Hong Kong. A two-dimensional model which couples the two-phase air-water flow in unsaturated and saturated zones successfully reproduces the observed air pressure under no rain conditions. The simulation reveals that significant increases in air pressure depend on the tidal ra...
متن کاملCaspian Sea Level Fluctuations
In this paper the main factors that influence the Caspian Sea level rising and the probable and improbable factors are discussed in detail. A cyclical behavior of the level of the Caspian Sea according to local records was proposed. This cyclic fluctuation of the sea level is the long-term behavior of the sea so that the investigation is not restricted to a specific time interval. The statistic...
متن کاملAnalysis of Subtidal Coastal Sea Level Fluctuations Using Wavelets
An understanding of subtidal coastal sea level fluctuations is important both because they impact the effect of tsunamis and other destructive events on human developments and because many physical and biological processes within coastal ecosystems are very sensitive to these fluctuations. We analyze a time series of subtidal fluctuations at Crescent City, California, during 1980–91 using the m...
متن کاملthe impact of coastal modification and caspian rapid sea level change on the amirabad coastal zone
we measured the impacts of coastal modification on beach erosion and beach retreat conditions, selecting the miankaleh region as an example of a complex high-pressure free zone with high levels of engineering and tourism activity. nine sampling transects, stretching from the shoreline to a 10 meter depth, were defined and 36 sediment samples were collected from the sea bed at depths of 1, 3, 5,...
متن کاملEffects of Caspian Sea water level fluctuations on existing drains
This study is an attempt to develop an integrated methodology to predict the impact of the Caspian Sea on flooding using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and hydrodynamic modeling. A rise in the sea level might lead to major flooding events, and have a severe impact on the spatial development of cities and regions. The feasibility of simulating a flood event along a drain channel is evaluat...
