Tidal dynamics and dispersion around coastal headlands
The dynamics of shallow tidal currents and tide-induced dispersion are investigated around coastal headlands that have alongshore length scales that are comparable to or less than the tidal excursion. Depth-averaged shallow water equations forced by oscillatory flow are solved numerically for …

The impact of land reclamation on tidal dynamics and suspended-sediment dynamics in Jiaozhou Bay, Qingdao, China
Using a tidal dominated bay, Jiazhou Bay (JZB) in Qingdao, China, as a sample, this thesis contains three parts: 1) the impact of land reclamation on tidal dynamics; 2) the impact of land reclamation on suspended-sediment dynamics; 3) the impact of wave-current interaction on suspended-sediment …

An assessment of tidal energy and the environmental response to extraction at a site in the Pentland Firth
Shelf tidal streams are accelerated by coastal features, such as headlands and islands. In the search for sustainable forms of electricity generation, such locations may become attractive for tidal stream power. For many prospective sites, however, little is known about the intricacies of the local …

DETECTION AND INFERENCE IN GRAVITATIONAL WAVE ASTRONOMY
… testing so that we can investigate the interior dynamics of neutron stars using the GW170817 signal. Finally, we use Bayesian parameter estimation from PyCBC with tools of Bayesian hypothesis testing to investigate the presence of nonlinear tidal dynamics from a pressure – gravity mode …

Tidally Induced Transport Dynamics in a Wadden Sea Tidal Basin and Its Changes Under Future Sea Level Rise Scenarios
… Wadden Sea are shaped by the interplay between tidal dynamics, basin geomorphology, and atmospheric forcing. These interactions create spatial structures of hydrodynamic connectivity that govern transport processes, ecological functioning, and the interpretation of long-term observations. …

Observations of Non-Migrating Tides in the Middle Thermosphere
… variability of the near-Earth space environment. Tidal variations have been exhaustively characterized in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere and the upper thermosphere, yet it is not quite known to what extent tides appear in the middle thermosphere due to a lack of global-scale systematic …

Late glacial and Holocene marine geology, palaeoceanography and palaeoecology of the Northern Isles of Scotland
… to determine if this is a result of changing tidal dynamics or is related to Neolithic land disturbance. No evidence of nutrient enrichment related to increased population size or run-off was detected. The proxies used in this study indicate that changes in physical oceanographic processes …

Underwater sound propagation and acoustic communication in a time-varying shallow estuarine environment
… of physical oceanographic processes, such as tidal water mixing and ocean winds/waves, which can significantly influence the underwater sound propagation and moreover, underwater acoustic communications. In order to perform reliably and effectively in such complex time-varying shallow-water …
