[1] We apply the Finite Volume Coastal Ocean Model to simulate the Hurricane Ike storm surge using two-dimensional (2-D) and three-dimensional (3-D) formulations. The high resolution, unstructured grid extends over the Gulf of Mexico with open boundaries in the Straits of Florida and the Yucatan Channel. With the same wind and pressure forcing, the bottom drag coefficients for the baseline 2-D ...

Although there have been several previous investigations on the role of auditory training for the development of auditory processing skills, it still remains unknown whether children with auditory processing difficulties can get improved auditory skills after exposure to a multi-modal training experience comprising both visual and tactile stimuli. The present study, therefore, attempted to use ...

Wind mixing is important in regulating dissolved oxygen (DO) variability; however, the transect response of DO dynamics to wind disturbance has seldom been documented with field data. In summer 2017, repeat observations off Changjiang Estuary were conducted throughout a fresh (the maximum speed was 9.8 m s–1) event reveal role physical and biological activity variations. After event, hypoxia al...

To conserve momentum flux across the air-sea interface, a new wind stress-wave-ocean coupled coastal model system is developed. Via simulating specific idealized tropical cyclone (TC), this firstly applied to study impacts of three wave effects, including commonly studied wave-breaking induced acceleration, wave-enhanced bottom friction and seldom modified surface stress (WMWS), conservation in...
