Cosmogenic krypton in zircon crystals reveals millions of years of erosion, sediment transport, and landscape evolution in southern Australia.

The study of sediment transport and riverbed dynamics is central to understanding the evolution of fluvial systems and their response to environmental change. Bedload movement, influenced by flow ...

A new IAEA Coordinated Research Project (CRP), entitled Development of Radiometric Methods and Modelling For Measurement of Sediment Transport in Coastal Systems and Rivers, will investigate how ...

Sand and silt in rivers dramatically change their means of transport at a sharp boundary between grain sizes, regardless of how fast the river flows. A universal transport algorithm revealed the break ...

Mangrove vegetation, which grows naturally in subtropical shorelines, provides a wide range of ecosystem functions such as reducing coastal erosion, promoting biodiversity, and removing nitrogen, ...

A Review of Hydrodynamic Mechanisms, CFD Modeling, and Coastal Engineering Implications Seabed scour caused by propellers is ...

HOUSTON - (Dec. 16, 2019) - The river may rage or gently roll, but in the end the sand and silt will have their way. Rice University Earth scientists and their colleagues have defined a surprising ...

How mangrove roots interact with water flow is believed to be a key element in mitigating coastal erosion. Researchers are the first to quantify the optimal mangrove root hydrodynamic with a ...
