Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego researchers have uncovered how rain and waves act on different parts of coastal cliffs. Following three years of cliff surveys in and near the ...

We know that wave erosion is a fundamental process but it has not yet been quantified very well, partly because field observations of the process are extremely limited. My recent field studies in San ...

Geologists studied Titan's shorelines and showed through simulations that coastlines of the moon's methane- and ethane-filled seas have likely been shaped by waves. Until now, scientists have found ...

Soil erosion is a key hydro-geological hazard and a primary cause of land degradation around the world, and it is increasing due to the combined pressures ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. One of the most distinctive features of Titan, Saturn’s largest ...

Researchers have always known that waves were an important part of the cliff erosion process, but they haven't been able to separate the influence of waves and rain before. After decades of debate ...
