On the causes of pulsing in continuous turbidity currents (2018)
Journal Article
Kostaschuk, R., Nasr-Azadani, M. M., Meiburg, E., Wei, T., Chen, Z., Negretti, M. E., Best, J., Peakall, J., & Parsons, D. R. (2018). On the causes of pulsing in continuous turbidity currents. Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 123(11), 2827-2843. https://doi.org/10.1029/2018JF004719

Velocity pulsing has previously been observed in continuous turbidity currents in lakes and reservoirs, even though the input flow is steady. Several different mechanisms have been ascribed to the generation of these fluctuations, including Rayleigh‐... Read More about On the causes of pulsing in continuous turbidity currents.

This article discusses solidarity economy initiatives as instances of grassroots organizing, and explores how ‘values practices’ are performed collectively during times of crisis. In focusing on how power, discourse and subjectivities are negotiated... Read More about Performing Values Practices and Grassroots Organizing: The Case of Solidarity Economy Initiatives in Greece.

Wave ripple development on mixed clay-sand substrates: Effects of clay winnowing and armoring (2018)
Journal Article
Wu, X., Baas, J. H., Parsons, D. R., Eggenhuisen, J., Amoudry, L., Cartigny, M., McLelland, S., Mouazé, D., & Ruessink, G. (2018). Wave ripple development on mixed clay-sand substrates: Effects of clay winnowing and armoring. Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 123(11), 2784-2801. https://doi.org/10.1029/2018JF004681

Based on bed form experiments in a large‐scale flume, we demonstrate that the rate of development of wave ripples on a mixed sand‐clay bed under regular waves is significantly lower than on a pure‐sand bed, even at clay fractions as low as 4.2%, and...

Morphological effects of vegetation on the tidal-fluvial transition in Holocene estuaries (2018)
Journal Article
Lokhorst, I. R., Braat, L., Leuven, J. R. F. W., Baar, A. W., Van Oorschot, M., Selaković, S., & Kleinhans, M. G. (2018). Morphological effects of vegetation on the tidal-fluvial transition in Holocene estuaries. Earth surface dynamics European Geosciences Union, 6(4), 883-901. https://doi.org/10.5194/esurf-6-883-2018

Vegetation enhances bank stability and sedimentation to such an extent that it can modify river patterns, but how these processes manifest themselves in full-scale estuarine settings is poorly understood. On the one hand, tidal flats accrete faster i... Read More about Morphological effects of vegetation on the tidal-fluvial transition in Holocene estuaries.

Nature communications, 9(1), Article 4114. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-018-06254-6

Seafloor sediment flows (turbidity currents) are among the volumetrically most important yet least documented sediment transport processes on Earth. A scarcity of direct observations means that basic characteristics, such as whether flows are entirel... Read More about Powerful turbidity currents driven by dense basal layers.

Effect of non-condensable gas on the behaviours of a controllable loop thermosyphon under active control (2018)
Journal Article

Controllable loop thermosyphon (CLT) can be used as a significant temperature management component in solar- and electric-powered cool-storage refrigerators. However, the behaviours of CLT with non-condensable gas (NCG) under active control require f...
