Energetic tidal-stream environments are characterized by frequent, variable, yet broadly
predictable currents containing ephemeral flow structures that change across multiple spatio …

The oceanic bottom boundary layer extracts energy and momentum from the overlying flow,
mediates the fate of near-bottom substances, and generates bedforms that retard the flow …

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 …

Field measurements of turbulence are presented from two sites in Puget Sound, WA, that are
proposed for electrical power generation using tidal current turbines. Time series data from …

Mounting evidence suggests that some populations of benthic marine organisms may be
less demographically'open'than previously thought. The degree to which a population …

Physical Oceanographic Processes of the Great Barrier Reef is the first comprehensive
volume describing the water circulation and its influence in controlling the distribution of …

Field measurements of tidal flow around a headland indicate secondary circulation induced
by flow curvature. The secondary flow, defined to be the flow in the plane normal to the …

We present findings from two sets of measurements that quantified currents around and over
the full extent of a giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) forest located at Mohawk Reef, Santa …

We describe an integrative approach to studying the fine-scale distribution of harbour
porpoises Phocoena phocoena in the Bay of Fundy, using satellite telemetry, line transect …

Density stratification and planetary rotation distinguish three-dimensional island wakes
significantly from a classical fluid dynamical flow around an obstacle. A numerical model is …
