The importance of asymmetric tidal cycles in the transport and accumulation of sediment in shallow well-mixed estuaries is well establishe!;L .Along the U.S. Atlantic Coast, tidal amplitude, bottom friction, and system geometry determine tidal distortion as documented at 54 tide gauges in 26 tidally dominated estuaries of varying geometry having negligible freshwater inflow. Analyses of sea-sur...

Since the 1950s, numerous publications of analytical studies of tidal wave propagations in coastal aquifers have been appeared. This paper reviews the following aspects: importance of tidal effects in studies of coastal areas, analytical studies of tide-induced groundwater flow and related case studies. Finally several important open problems in analytical studies of tide-induced groundwater fl...

abstract: the new neonatal ventilation methods have been developed along with utilization of new technological tools.this device is synchronized with the patient’s respiratory efforts. the ideal synchronized breath needs to be synchronous with initiation, size, and termination of the breath without delay in detecting of initial resiratory effort by device .the synchrony of respiration contribut...

In tidally affected coastal catchments detention pond should be provided to store flood surface water. A comparison between the full simulation approach based on the joint probability method and time series rainfall modeling via the annual maximum of pond level was undertaken to investigate the assumptions of independence between variables that are necessary in the joint probability method. The...

Seasonal episodes of significant tidal damping (reductions of tidal amplitudes as much as 50%) and tidal modulation were observed in the Hudson River estuary in the course of three consecutive winters from multiple tide gages. Through comparisons with United States Coast Guard ice reports, it was hypothesized that these events correspond with an increase in ice concentration and the development...

background: patients undergone mechanical ventilation need rapid and reliable evaluation of their respiratory status. monitoring of end-tidal carbon dioxide (etco2) as a surrogate, noninvasive measurement of arterial carbon dioxide (paco2) is one of the methods used for this purpose in intubated patients. objectives: the aim of the present trial was to study the relationship between end-tidal c...

This document gives a brief introduction on the use of TideHarmonics. The package implements harmonic analysis of tidal and sea-level data. Up to 409 different harmonic tidal constituents can be estimated, and daily nodal corrections are implemented by default.Time-varying mean sea-levels can also be used. Section 1 briefly outlines the theory of harmonic tidal analysis. Example code is contain...

There are multi-source data in island areas, such as land DEM, bathymetry and sea level data from tidal stations. Different data have different spatial references, especially in vertical datums. To visualize the different data in a system, those data needed to be converted into a same spatial reference. This paper presents a methodology to integrate multi-source data of island areas. To visuali...

An oil spill model coupled with a hydrodynamic model was developed to simulate the spread of oil slick in real marine conditions considering the effects of tidal currents, wind and wave. The hydrodynamic model is verified using the measurements of tidal elevations and current speeds at the Persian Gulf. Effect of various governing factors on oil slick movement, tidal currents, wind and wave, ar...

The natural evolution of the estuary-coastal lagoon system of the Ria de Aveiro, Portugal, was halted in 1808 by the construction of a new inlet/outlet channel through the sand spit which isolates it from the Atlantic Ocean. In consequence, tidal amplitudes in the lagoon increased from 0.07–0.13 m to over 1 m. Improvements to the channel since 1936, including construction of jetties, breakwater...
