The global expansion of harmful cyanobacterial blooms (CyanoHABs) poses an increasing
threat to public health. CyanoHABs are characterized by the production of toxic metabolites …

This paper is based on material presented at the start of a Health Protection Agency meeting
on ultrasound and infrasound. In answering the question 'what is ultrasound?', it shows that …

The subject of ocean turbulence is in a state of discovery and development with many
intellectual challenges. This book describes the principal dynamic processes that control the …

Breaking ocean waves entrain air bubbles that enhance air–sea gas flux, produce aerosols,
generate ambient noise and scavenge biological surfactants. The size distribution of the …

Since their development for investigating sand transport in the surf zone more than 25 years
ago, optical backscatter sensors (OBSs) have been in continual use for a wide variety of …

Since time immemorial, surface water waves and their subsequent breaking have been
studied. Herein we concentrate on breaking surface waves in deep and intermediate water …

A formula for the maximum size of a bubble for which surface tension forces can prevent
bubble breakup by inertial forces, combined with the observed sizes of air bubbles in …

This laboratory experimental study investigates the temporal evolution of the size distribution
of subsurface oil droplets generated as breaking waves entrain oil slicks. The …

Breaking bow waves entrain massive gas that generate ambient noise and produce spray
and bubbly wake with whitecap. This study aims to give a quantitative description of the flow …

This paper describes detailed measurements and analysis of the time-varying distribution of
void fractions in three different breaking waves under laboratory conditions. The …
