Benthic storms, nepheloid layers, and linkage with upper ocean dynamics in the western North Atlantic
Abstract Benthic storms are episodic periods of strong abyssal currents and intense, benthic nepheloid (turbid) layer development. In order to interpret the driving forces that create and sustain these storms, we synthesize measurements of deep...

Storm impacts and shoreline recovery: Mechanisms and controls in the southern North Sea
Abstract Storm impacts play a significant role in shoreline dynamics on barrier coastlines. Furthermore, inter-storm recovery is a key parameter determining long-term coastal resilience to climate change, storminess variability and sea level rise....

A methodology for maximizing the benefits of solar landfills on closed sites
Abstract Local urban planning has become concerned over clean energy technologies development on greenfield land that may lead to competition in land use. Solar photovoltaic systems on agriculture land is an indicative example of this disputed...

Site correction of a high-frequency strong-ground-motion simulation based on an empirical transfer function
Abstract In this study, an empirical transfer function (ETF), which is the spectrum difference in Fourier amplitude spectra between observed strong ground motion and synthetic motion obtained by a stochastic point-source simulation technique, is...
