Fishes suspended in water are subject to the complex nature of three-dimensional flows.
Often, these flows are the result of abiotic and biotic sources that alter otherwise uniform …

Despite widespread recognition that landforms are complex Earth systems with process-
response linkages that span temporal scales from seconds to millennia and spatial scales …

Laboratory scale testing of tidal turbines has generated valuable datasets to support
optimised turbine design and numerical model validation. However, tidal sites are highly …

The paper promotes an emerging research area at the interfaces between aquatic ecology,
biomechanics and environmental fluid mechanics. This new area, Hydrodynamics of Aquatic …

A model of sand transport in water is produced by combining a turbulence‐resolving large
eddy simulation (LES) with a discrete element model (DEM) prescribing the motion of …

The current understanding of the effects of turbulence on the swimming performance of fish
is primarily derived from laboratory experiments under pressurised flow swim tunnels and …

Previous studies suggest that the seismic noise induced by rivers may be used to infer river
transport properties, and previous theoretical work showed that bedload sediment flux can …

Wall-bounded turbulence manifests itself in a broad range of applications, not least in
hydraulic systems. Here, we briefly review the significant advances over the past few …

The behavior of turbulent open channel flows over permeable surfaces is not well
understood. In particular, it is not clear how the surface and the subsurface flow within the …

The present study investigates the flow physics and the role played by the main coherent
structures in the scouring processes around a vertical spur dike in a straight channel at …
