Effect of Simulated Tidal Patterns on Growth and Growth Line Formation in the Little Neck Clam, PROTOTHACA STAMINEA
… seem to be the dominating influence in some intertidal species. This study provides laboratory evidence suggesting that tides are a major influence in the number of growth lines in the clam Protothaca staminea.</p> <p>Clams were grown under 4 different "tidal" regimes, (0, 1, 2 and 3 tides per …

Comparative ecology and physiology of four South African mussel species with notes on culture potential
… its growth strategies with those of other intertidal mussel species. It appears that although presently mainly confined to cool water of the west and south coasts, M. galloprovincialis will soon colonize in the near future the warmer waters of the east coasts. The second chapter consists of a …

The development of empirical chloride-induced corrosion rate prediction models for cracked and uncracked steel reinforced concrete structures in the marine tidal zone
… concrete (RC) structures in the marine tidal exposure zone are proposed in this study. The data used to develop the models were obtained from parallel corrosion experiments carried out by exposing half of 210 beam specimens to accelerated laboratory corrosion (cyclic 3 days wetting with …

Atmospheric and spatial drivers of egg abundance in beach nesting shorebirds across an urban-coastal gradient of the Rockaway Peninsula, New York
<p>Understanding the drivers of reproductive patterns in beach-nesting shorebirds is essential for conservation in dynamic coastal systems. This study evaluated the influence of atmospheric, geomorphological, and anthropogenic factors on egg abundance and nesting patterns across four distinct areas …
