The bifurcation analysis of the K (m, n) equation, which serves as a generalized model for the Korteweg-de Vries equation describing the dynamics of shallow water waves on ocean beaches and lake shores, is carried out in this paper. The phase portraits are given and solitary wave solutions are obtained. Singular periodic wave solutions are also given in this work.

This paper explores the application of archaeological site formation theory to stranded wooden vessels and the scattered wreck-sites they produce. Shallow water wrecks and wreckage sites in the Au Sable Shores region of western Lake Huron are used to develop a preliminary classification of the processes operating on the breakup and deposition of wooden vessels. 2002 The Nautical Archaeology Soc...

Three areas in the Great Lakes region are known to harbor species whose primary range is the coastal plain: (1) the southeastern Georgian Bay region of Ontario, (2) the sandplains near Lake Michigan in southwestern Michigan and northern Indiana, and (3) the lacustrine sand deposits in central and northern Wisconsin. Secondary areas with smaller concentrations are found in the southeastern Lake ...

Gastropod shells are important antipredator structures that vary morphologically in response to predation risk, often increasing in thickness when the risk of predation is greater. Because the shell is composed of different microstructures that vary in energetic cost and strength, shell thickness may be increased in different ways. We tested whether the common intertidal snail Nucella lapillus ...
