Function and diversity of the Ship, Trinity, and Tiger Shoal Complex, with emphasis on macrofauna and spawning blue crabs (Callinectes sapidus)
The ecological and economic value of sandy shoals off the Louisiana coast is not well understood. During three years of comprehensive benthic sampling and environmental measurements I studied the Ship, Trinity, Tiger Shoal Complex (STTSC), which comprises changing and discrete benthic habitats …

Bottom boundary layer physics and sediment transport along a transgressive sand body, Ship Shoal, south-central Louisiana: implications for fluvial sediments and winter storms
Ship Shoal, a shore-parallel sand body, was recently recognized as having a unique physical and biological environment and also as a potential sand resource for coastal restoration in coastal Louisiana. Little is known regarding such dynamics, in concert with fluvial sediments and winter storms, …

INTERNAL FACIES ARCHITECTURE OF A REGRESSIVE TO TRANSGRESSIVE WAVE-DOMINATED DELTA IN THE UPPER CRETACEOUS EAGLE FORMATION, SOUTH-CENTRAL MONTANA
… by landward dipping proximal to distal shoal overwash fan deposits derived from combined-flow storm-generated turbidity currents. A maximum regressive surface (MRS) separates underlying prograding deltaic deposits from downlapping shoal overwash fan deposits above. Shoal overwash fan …

EVALUATING HABITAT USE BY NEKTON IN WIDGEON GRASS (RUPPIA MARITIMA), SHOAL GRASS (HALODULE WRIGHTII), AND UNVEGETATED BOTTOM HABITATS IN THE GRAND BAY NATIONAL ESTUARINE RESEARCH RESERVE
… (widgeon grass) and <em>Halodule wrightii</em> (shoal grass). The shallow coastal waters of the Grand Bay National Estuarine Research Reserve (NERR) support both species, but the use of each seagrass as habitat by nekton is poorly understood, which can limit management decision-making. Nekton …

The Porosity And Permeability Distribution Of The Shoal Grainstone And Thrombolitic Facies Of The Smackover Formation In Little Cedar Creek And Brooklyn Fields In Southwestern Alabama
… is the result of two reservoirs, known as the shoal grainstone and thrombolite (microbial) boundstone. Even with the success of the Smackover Formation, geographic trends of the porosity and permeability are problematic because production is affected. The distribution of the facies also plays a …

Physical control of the distributions of a key Arctic copepod in the northeast Chukchi Sea
… glacialis distributions were observed over Hanna Shoal in the northeast Chukchi Sea. Here we used the Finite Volume Community Ocean Model i-State Configuration Model to advect these distributions forward and back in time to determine the source and sink regions of the transient Hanna Shoal C. …

Variation in shoaling behavior in lake Mývatn threespine stickleback in relation to temperature and origin
… and geological features have an impact on the shoaling behavior of juvenile stickleback of lake Mývatn. Fish were reared at contrasting temperatures (22 °C and 13°C) for 5-7 months. Shoaling was tested by placing a single fish in an arena with a shoal and two distractors and behaviour recorded …

Origin of Visean (Mississippian) Frobisher Group Coated Grainstone Shoals in the Williston Basin: Deposition and Diagenesis
… by interpreted marine channel deposits. These shoals consist of numerous stacked shallowing-upward, cyclical deposits composed of peloids, coated grains and compound grains. Unmodified true marine ooids are a minor component. Units within paleochannels consist of allochems of open marine origin …

Hydrodynamics of a multiple tidal inlet system : Katama Bay, Martha’s Vineyard, MA
… As Katama inlet lengthened, narrowed, and shoaled between 2011 and 2014, the relative effects of friction (observed and simulated) increased greatly, resulting in reduced circulation energy, an increase in the M6 tidal constituent, and changes in velocity asymmetries that are consistent …
