Numerical simulations of three of the most severe historical tropical cyclones to affect the
Delaware River Basin (DRB) are used to evaluate a new numerical approach that is a …

Abstract The Delaware Estuary has a history of high anthropogenic nutrient loadings but has
been classified as a high-nutrient, low-growth system due to persistent light limitation …

Lateral processes contribute significantly to circulation and material transport in estuaries.
The mechanisms controlling transport may vary spatially such that shallow and deep regions …

Delaware Bay is a large estuary with a deep, relatively narrow channel and wide, shallow
banks, providing a clear example of a “channel‐shoal” estuary. This numerical modeling …

Salinity intrusion in coastal systems is mainly controlled by freshwater inflows. However,
extreme events like drought, low-pressure storms, and longer-term sea level rise can …

Coastal sediments are an important site for transient and long-term mercury (Hg) storage,
and they foster a geochemical environment optimal for Hg methylation. Therefore, efforts …

Phytoplankton biomass in estuaries is controlled by complex biological and chemical
processes that control growth and mortality, and physical processes that control transport …

Abstract The Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere–Wave–Sediment Transport (COAWST) modeling
system was used to explore lateral circulation and associated sediment transport in a …

The intensity of small‐scale fluid motions varies among coastal seascapes, which could
drive species‐specific behavioral adaptations in planktonic larvae. For example, inlets and …

The abundant and metabolically versatile aquatic bacterial order, Rhodobacterales,
influences marine biogeochemical cycles. We assessed Rhodobacterales metagenome …
