Flow Dynamics and Local Scour Around Seabed-Mounted Artificial Reefs: A Case Study from Torbay, UKOA Marine
This study investigates the flow dynamics and local scour around a Reef Cube® artificial reef deployed in Torbay, UK, using computational fluid dynamics. The flow is modelled using Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations with a k-ω SST turbulence model. A novel hydro-morphodynamic model employing the generalized internal boundary method in HELYX (OpenFOAM-based) is used to simulate scour development. Model performance...
Digital innovation for cancer risk assessment allows large-scale service redevelopment of regional cancer genetics service deliveryNARA Subscribed
Family-history assessment can identify individuals above population-risk for cancer to enable targeted Screening, Prevention and Early Detection (SPED). The online patient-facing cancer Family History Questionnaire Service (cFHQS) is a digitalised, resource efficient tool for family history data capture to facilitate this. The capturing of digital data from cFHQS allows for data interrogation of patients referred to Clinical G...
Defining an ageing-related pathology, disease or syndrome: International Consensus StatementNARA Subscribed
Around the world, individuals are living longer, but an increased average lifespan does not always equate to an increased health span. With advancing age, the increased prevalence of ageing-related diseases can have a significant impact on health status, functional capacity and quality of life. It is therefore vital to develop comprehensive classification and staging systems for ageing-related pathologies, diseases and syndrom...
Susan Lynn Williams: the Life of an Exceptional Scholar, Leader, and Friend (1951–2018)NARA Subscribed
Susan Lynn Williams (1951–2018) was an exceptional marine ecologist whose research focused broadly on the ecology of benthic nearshore environments dominated by seagrasses, seaweeds, and coral reefs. She took an empirical approach founded in techniques of physiological ecology. Susan was committed to applying her research results to ocean management through outreach to decision-makers and resource managers. Susan’s career incl...
Prioritization of knowledge‐needs to achieve best practices for bottom trawling in relation to seabed habitatsNARA Subscribed
Management and technical approaches that achieve a sustainable level of fish production while at the same time minimizing or limiting the wider ecological effects caused through fishing gear contact with the seabed might be considered to be ‘best practice’. To identify future knowledge‐needs that would help to support a transition towards the adoption of best practices for trawling, a prioritization exercise was undertaken wit...
Public Lands Management IssuesNARA Subscribed
139Living more safely at the wildland-urban interface (WUI) requires a basic understanding of fire behavior, preplanning, constant maintenance/vigilance, and deciding when to stay or evacuate so as not to fall victim to the predictable fire-flood cycle. Sitting and construction of neighbors' homes, their distances from adjacent structures, and the continuous maintenance of their property is also critical in creating a more fir...
