We investigate the ability of a ID fully nonlinear Boussinesq model including breaking to reproduce surf zone waves in terms of wave height and nonlinear intraphase properties such as asymmetry and skewness. An alternative ...

Laboratory experiments are conducted in a wave facility with a loose sediment beach in order to estimate the wave characteristics needed for sediment transport modeling. A roller model and a Boussinesq-type model are used ...

The spatial and temporal patterns within the surf zone epibenthic assemblages were studied in a coastal fringe of Argentina to determine whether assemblage compositions, abundance, species richness and diversity vary ...

The microwave backscatter properties of surf zone waves are analyzed using field observations. By utilizing a preexisting, independent, water surface discrimination technique, the microwave returns were extracted along ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the temporal dynamics (monthly/tidal) of water temperature, salinity, chlorophyll-a (chlo-a), suspended particulate matter (SPM), particulate organic carbon (POC), and dissolved ...

Surf zones of sandy beaches are poorly studied in comparison to estuarine and continental shelf waters, specifically because of the difficulties experienced in sampling in high-energy environments. The zooplankton of these ...

O surfe é uma importante atividade recreativa e econômica que envolve interação humana com diversos ambientes costeiros e a cada ano que passa está expandindo tanto em locais tradicionais, quanto alcançando novos ambientes. ...

Temporal dynamics of a zooplankton community were examined in the surf zone of Pehuen Co beach (PC), Argentina. The effect of environmental variables on the zooplankton composition and abundance was also investigated. ...
