Abstract: Wood deposits on beaches can contribute to coastal ecosystem function. However, driftwood and debris mobilized by storm waves pose hazards to coastal communities, infrastructure, and valued assets, including sensitive ...

Abstract: The main measure of response to aquatic oil spills is the mechanical containment and recovery from the water surface. The majority of containment booms are not effective when the relative current/tow speed exceeds approximately ...

Abstract: Physical modeling presents a useful tool for investigating the coastal protection function provided by marsh vegetation in a controlled, repeatable environment to inform the design of nature-based coastal protection ...
