REPEATABILITY OF MORPHOLOGICAL CHANGE ON A SANDY BEACH ACROSS MULTIPLE TIMESCALES
(Coastal Engineering Research Council, 2023-09-01)<jats:p>The swash zone is a highly dynamic region of the nearshore in terms of both hydro- and sediment dynamics. Previous work has demonstrated that the majority of swash events transport only small amounts of sediment ... -
Collective order and group structure of shoaling fish subject to differing risk-level treatments with a sympatric predator
It is imperative for individuals to exhibit flexible behaviour according to ecological context, such as available resources or predation threat. Manipulative studies on responses to threat often focus on behaviour in the ... -
Experimental investigation of transient strains of GGBS-FA-SF blended geopolymer concrete at elevated temperatures
(Elsevier, 2024-03-15)Fire is one of the most severe conditions encountered during the lifetime of a structure. Consequently, the provision of proper fire safety measures for structural members is a major safety requirement in building design. ... -
Anthropogenic noise limits resource distribution without changing social hierarchies
(ElsevierNetherlands, 2024-04-20)Increasing evidence demonstrates that anthropogenic noise is a global pollutant that threatens marine ecosystems. Mounting numbers of studies show its diverse effects on individuals and their behaviour. However, little ... -
Measurements of tidal flow variability in Ramsey Sound, Pembrokeshire
(European Wave and Tidal Energy Conference, 2023-09-07)The nature of the flow at in-stream tidal energy sites is particularly important for predicting array and device performance, and also for operations and maintenance planning. Previous developers have reported issues ... -
An univariate extreme sea state and extreme wind speed for an offshore wind turbine off the south coast of jamaica
(2021-01-01)Offshore wind turbines are exposed to hydrodynamic and wind forces, which must be evaluated when designing them. One of the fundamental steps in the determination of these forces is the calculation of the return levels ... -
Surface ocean biogeochemistry and deep ocean circulation control relationships between nutrient-type trace metals (Cd, Ni, Cu, and Zn) and nutrients in the South Atlantic Ocean near the subtropical front
(Elsevier BV, 2024-01-08)The ocean region along the latitude of 40°S in the South Atlantic, characterized by enhanced primary productivity, forms a transition zone between the nutrient replete but iron depleted Southern Ocean, and the nitrate and ... -
Predicting Lemna growth based on climate change and eutrophication in temperate freshwater drainage ditches
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2024-02-21)The Somerset Levels and Moors, UK is an area of high conservation value, including nationally and internationally protected wetland sites. Duckweed (Lemna) mats in the Somerset Levels and Moors are increasingly common and ... -
Residual mechanical properties of GGBS-FA-SF blended geopolymer concrete after exposed to elevated temperatures
(Elsevier BV, 2024-01)Geopolymer concrete has been increasingly used in industry. However, if the geopolymer concrete is blended using a single percussor its performance is often very limited by the properties of the percussor. Thus, it ...
