Patterns of beach erosion and accretion due to jetty construction
are examined for the coast of Oregon. All jetty systems are
included with the exception of those on the Columbia River, making a
total of nine systems.
All evidence indicates that these areas of the Oregon coast are
experiencing a...
Early life stages of many marine and diadromous fish species use sandy beach surf zones, which occur along >50% of the world's marine coastlines. This extensive habitat can provide juvenile fishes with an abundant supply of potential prey and the ability to hide from predators in its shallow turbid waters....
Downward flow opposing mixed convection conditions have been studied using the FLUENT CFD code. This work was comprised of two primary objectives. The first was to study core channel flow reversal susceptibility in the Gas Reactor Test Section (GRTS) at low flow conditions. The second objective was the development of...

I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Jose
The flooding phenomenon can be defined as the maximum attainable flow
condition beyond which the well defined countercurrent flow pattern can no longer
exist. Thus the countercurrent flow limit (CCFL) or the flooding limit may be thought
of as the flow condition at which the strong interaction between the two...
