Impact of wave–current coupling on the bottom boundary layer in Bohai Bay by Siyu Liu, Siyu Liu, Guangxue Li, Xue Liu, Lulu Qiao, Nan Wang, Shidong Liu, Xiangdong Wang, Di Yu, Lei Zhang

“…Moreover, the SSC near the seabed was generally governed by the currents, while waves were predominant in this regard in stormy conditions. The index of intensity of the bottom shear β—defined as the ratio of the wave–current-induced shear stress to the critical shear stress—was identified as a sensitive indicator of variations in the SSC. …”

Quantifying the Impact of Soil Moisture Sensor Measurements in Determining Green Stormwater Infrastructure Performance by Matina Shakya, Amanda Hess, Bridget M. Wadzuk, Robert G. Traver

“…Soil moisture sensors have been used to quantify infiltration and evapotranspiration in GSI practices both preceding, during, and following storm events. Although useful, soil-specific calibration is often needed for soil moisture sensors, as small measurement variations can result in misinterpretation of the water budget and associated GSI performance. …”
