Millions of tons of riverine plastic waste enter the ocean via estuaries annually. The plastics
accumulate, fragment, mix and interact with organisms in these dynamic systems, but such …

Frontogenesis is the fluid-dynamical processes that rapidly sharpen horizontal density
gradients and their associated horizontal velocity shears. It is a positive feedback process …

Bowen, BM, 2005: Improved wind and turbulence measurements using low cost 3-D sonic
anemometers at a low wind site. 13th Symp. on Meteorological Observations and …

The energetic frontal region of the tidally pulsed Connecticut River plume was sampled with
the T-REMUS Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) which navigated ten cross-front …

Submesoscale currents (SMCs), in the forms of fronts, filaments, and vortices, are studied
using a high-resolution (~ 150 m) Regional Oceanic Modeling System (ROMS) simulation in …

In this second of two papers, the high spatial resolution cBathy depth estimate algorithm is
extended to account for the existence of currents aligned with the wave directions. The …

The mixing of river plumes into the coastal ocean influences the fate of riverborne tracers
over the inner shelf, though the relative importance of mixing mechanisms under different …

Submesoscale fronts often become visible when the accumulation of biosurfactants in the
water surface microlayer causes smooth surfaces, called frontal slicks, to develop. Based on …

Here, we explore the kinematics and dynamics of coastal density fronts (within 10 km from
shore and< 30-m depth), identified using an edge detection algorithm, in a realistic high …

X‐band marine radar observations and a hindcast simulation from a 3D hydrostatic model
are used to provide an overview of Connecticut River (USA) ebb plume front expansion into …
