Fluid forces or impacts: What governs the entrainment of soil particles in sediment transport mediated by a Newtonian fluid?

Thomas Pähtz, Orencio Durán

In steady sediment transport, sediment deposition is balanced by entrainment of bed particles by fluid forces or particle-bed impacts. Here we propose a proxy to determine the role…

Combination of Lidar Elevations, Bathymetric Data, and Urban Infrastructure in a Sub-Grid Model for Predicting Inundation in New York City during Hurricane Sandy

Jon Derek Loftis, Harry V. Wang, Stuart E. Hamilton +1

We present the geospatial methods in conjunction with results of a newly developed storm surge and sub-grid inundation model which was applied in New York City during Hurricane San…

Extinction risk and conservation of the world's sharks and rays

Nicholas K. Dulvy, Sarah L. Fowler, John A. Musick +20

The rapid expansion of human activities threatens ocean-wide biodiversity loss. Numerous marine animal populations have declined, yet it remains unclear whether these trends are sy…

Estimating the effects of sea level rise on coupled estuarine nitrogen cycling processes through comparative network analysis

David E. Hines, Jessica A. Lisa, Bongkeun Song +2

Nitrogen (N) removal from estuaries is driven in part by sedimentary microbial processes. The processes of denitrification and anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) remove N from…

Investigating the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem multifunctionality: Challenges and solutions

Jarrett E. K. Byrnes, Lars Gamfeldt, Forest Isbell +7

Extensive research shows that more species-rich assemblages are generally more productive and efficient in resource use than comparable assemblages with fewer species. But the ques…
