Modelling the Impacts of Finfish Aquaculture
The main components of lagrangian (particle tracking) models used in the assessment of aquaculture impact have been reviewed. Trends in input data... -
Geospatial Based Application for Dam Planning and Monitoring in Malaysia: A Review
Malaysia is well endowed with abundance of natural water resources, which has significantly contributed to the socio-economic development of the... -
Geostrophic flows control future changes of oceanic eastern boundary upwelling
Equatorward alongshore winds over major eastern boundary upwelling systems (EBUSs) drive intense upwelling via Ekman dynamics, surfacing...

Performance Evaluation of 2D Hydrodynamic Model for Lower Narmada River Basin, India
In the current study, a two-dimensional (2D) hydrodynamic (HD) model is developed to investigate the effect of proposed Bhadbhut Barrage on the... -
A hydrodynamic model–based approach to assess sampling approaches for dissolved oxygen criteria in the Chesapeake Bay
Technological advances in water quality measurement systems have provided the potential to expand high-frequency observations into coastal monitoring...

Satellite Observations as Indicators of the Mediterranean Sea’s Health
Satellite observations of the marine environment allow the assessment of optical, thermal and structural properties, which can be inferred from the... -
Oceanographic factors of oil pollution dispersion offshore the Nile Delta (Egypt) using GIS
Oil pollution is a worldwide concern due to the increasing rate of offshore oil production and transport. As the Nile Delta coast is adjacent to the...
