Hydrologic Dynamics in Response to Natural and Anthropogenic Stresses on a Barrier Island: Saltwater Intrusion and Inundation.
(East Carolina University, 8/5/2020)The impacts of climate change and sea-level rise on groundwater systems on barrier islands are not well documented in the literature. Globally, there is high competition for useable land in coastal regions because large ... -
Impact of Hurricane Katrina (2005) on deltaic evolution and shelf organic carbon cycling
(2010)Sediment cores from the continental shelf adjacent to the Mississippi River delta immediately after the passage of Hurricane Katrina were used to examine the magnitude, and implications for the carbon budget, of sediment ... -
The Influence of Aquaculture on Foraminifera and Sediment Properties in the Setiu Estuary and Lagoon of Terengganu, Malaysia
(East Carolina University, 2013)In order to address how aquaculture has influenced the Setiu estuary and lagoon of northeast peninsular Malaysia, foraminifera, sediment grain-size, and carbon and nitrogen isotope ratios and abundances were analyzed in ... -
THE INFLUENCE OF FRACTURE CHARACTERISTICS ON GROUNDWATER FLOW SYSTEMS IN FRACTURED IGNEOUS AND METAMORPHIC ROCKS OF NORTH CAROLINA (USA)
(East Carolina University, 2013)The yield of water wells drilled in crystalline rock aquifers is determined by the occurrence and interaction of open, saturated fractures which decrease with increased depth, outside of the influence of large-scale features ... -
An Integrated Method for Monitoring Material Transport in a Coupled Land-Estuary System Following a Dynamic Storm Event : The Neuse River and Estuary, NC and Hurricane Irene
(East Carolina University, 2013)Coastal aquatic environments are complex and dynamic systems that are influenced by both marine and terrestrial processes such as waves, tides, winds and freshwater discharge. Rivers are conduits that transport freshwater ... -
IRON ISOTOPE GEOCHEMISTRY OF BULK ROCKS AND Fe-Ti OXIDES FROM THE SKAERGAARD LAYERED MAFIC INTRUSION, SE GREENLAND
(East Carolina University, 2019-07-23)Small, but significant fractionation of Fe isotopes occurs in high-temperature igneous rocks. Despite increasing study, the exact causes of this fractionation are still debated. Therefore, a systematic study of a complete ...
