High rates of wetland loss in the Mississippi deltaic plain have been attributed to a
combination of insufficient marsh sedimentation and relative sea-level rise rates of over 1.2 …

The relations among marsh elevation, flooding frequency and duration, and marsh accretion
in a Spartina alterniflora marsh in coastal Louisiana were evaluated over a 39-month period …

The following four assumptions were tested (a) satisfaction with job/task events and
perceptions of job challenge, autonomy, and importance are direct, reciprocal causes of …

This study investigates the changes in circulation, sediment resuspension, sediment flux and
salinity that accompany" winter storms" in the Atchafalaya Bay region, events that occur 20 to …

Bottom sediment resuspension frequency, duration, and extent (ie areal percent of bottom
sediments affected) were characterized for the 15month period from September 1995 to …

Marsh shorelines are retreating rapidly in coastal Louisiana, largely driven by wind waves
attacking the marsh edge. The amount of wave power hitting the marsh is a major predictor …

The effect of a cold front passage on suspended sediment concentrations, water
temperatures, and coastal circulation off Louisiana is examined via remote sensing with the …

The present-day coast of Louisiana is undergoing unprecedented change when compared
with other coastal regions of the United States. Whereas most of its shoreline is retreating …

The Atchafalaya inner continental shelf, located along the north-central Gulf of Mexico
offshore of Louisiana, is an area of rapid mud accumulation associated with the …

Water level variations were used to calculate cold-front-induced water exchange fluxes for
three Louisiana bays. Twenty-nine cold fronts were identified from weather maps between …
