Friday morning after Mass until noon. 9786185175 2 MǂǓDŽlj 7, 2021 “Behold the Man!” . I keep hearing that we’re living “in unprecedented times.” I’m not sure how true that is. Yes, certainly a situation like we’re currently facing is new, and nothing exactly like it has transpired before. But unprecedented times would be times that have never had the way before them paved; times that have nothing in their history that even corresponds to them. 1965 saw events that in fact did provide precedent for this age. The cold war, the very real threat of nuclear annihilation, technological advances, and a host of other challenges to civilizationNsome good and necessary challenges, along with some unsettling onesNall of these created a season of uncertainty and cultural crisis for western civilization. The Second Vatican Council sought to address itself to the state of the human person living in such a climate. In its reflection on the Church in the Modern World, Vatican II observed that “In wonder at their own discoveries and their own might, men are today troubled and perplexed by questions about current trends in the world, about their own place and their role in the universe, about the meaning of individual and collective endeavor, and finally about the destiny of nature and of men.” Sound familiar? Anxiety over being destroyed by the products of our own genius, or by forces too titanic for us to match, has distressed our selfunderstanding and disrupted our peace of mind before. That fact alone should give us some small comfort. Perhaps the single biggest difference is that we’re less inclined to introspection today than we were fiftyfive years ago. But that undertow deep in the abyss of our heart hasn’t gone away just because we don’t plumb the depths to try and confront them; they’re still there, they’re just noises in the shadows: little formless fears, to borrow a phrase from Eugene O’Neill. But the Council Fathers also assert, in the same reflection and in response to these anxieties plaguing the people of their own time, that “In reality it is only in the mystery of the Word made flesh that the mystery of man truly becomes clear. Christ the Lord […] fully reveals man to himself and brings to light his most high calling.” This last sentence was a favorite of Pope St. John Paul II, one he quoted regularly in his own papal writings. And it is a poignant line, one that is as rich and profound as it is beautiful. Jesus isn’t just one singular individual, a particular man; much less is He one prophet among so many others. He is the Son of God, who always referred to Himself as the Son of Man. In other words, Jesus is the quintessential human person, the perfect paragon of what it means to be human. In the mystery of Jesus’s own lived humanity God discloses to us the mystery of our own humanity, and as we reflect on Jesus’s life the shadows in the depths of our own heart have eternal light shed on them. What God has designed each of us for, what we all are destined for, is shown to us in the person of Jesus Christ. We come to recognize the kind of life we’re called to live, and glimpse the transcendent glory of our truest good: communion with God in the Beatific Vision of Heaven. The more we draw close to Him, the better we understand ourselves. As we deepen our communion with Him, all those contradictions within ourselves are reconciled and resolved, we come into more perfect harmony with ourselves, and those little formless fears are burned away in the pure light of His FaceNthe Face of God revealed to us in the Face of the man, Jesus of Nazareth. Time spent becoming intimately acquainted with the Gospels is time spent growing more familiar with Jesus Himself. And if we in our turn allow Jesus to become closer to us in earnest prayer, the better acquainted we actually become with ourselves. Time well spent, all around. As Pontius Pilate said, “Behold the Man!” And in beholding the Man, behold the human person in full dignity and transcendent destiny.

In particular, wind-generated waves cause fluctuations of the sea level at the coast over timescales from a few seconds (individual wave runup) to a few hours (wave-induced setup). These wave-induced processes are of major importance for coastal management as they add up to tides and atmospheric surges during storm events and enhance coastal flooding and erosion. Changes in the atmospheric circulation associated with natural climate cycles or caused by increasing greenhouse gas emissions affect the wave conditions worldwide, which may drive significant changes in the wave-induced coastal hydrodynamics. Since sea-level rise represents a major challenge for sustainable coastal management, particularly in low-lying coastal areas and/or along densely urbanized coastlines, understanding the contribution of wind-generated waves to the long-term budget of coastal sea-level changes is therefore of major importance.

To better understand the hydrodynamic and morphodynamic roles of an artificial reef (AR) in beach protection, a series of experiments were conducted in a 50 m-long wave flume configured with a 1:10 sloping beach and a model AR (1.8 m long 0.3 m high) with 0.2 m submergence depth. Five regular and five irregular wave × conditions were generated on two types of beach profiles (with/without model AR) to study the cross-shore hydrodynamic and morphological evolution process. The influences of AR on the processes are concluded as follows: (1) AR significantly decreases the incident wave energy, and its dissipation effect differs for higher and lower harmonics under irregular wave climates; (2) AR changes the cross-shore patterns of hydrodynamic factors (significant wave height,

Guannel1,a) and H. T. Ozkan-Haller¨ 2 1School of Civil and Construction Engineering, Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon 97331, USA 2College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences, Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon 97331, USA (Received 6 September 2013; accepted 7 February 2014; published online 13 May 2014) The undertow is one of the most important mechanisms for sediment transport in nearshore regions. As such, its formulation has been an active subject of research for at least the past 40 years. Still, much debate persists on the exact nature of the forcing and theoretical expression of this current. Here, assuming linear wave theory and keeping most terms in the wave momentum equations, a solution to the undertow in the surf zone is derived, and it is shown that it is unique. It is also shown that, unless they are erroneous, most solutions presented in the literature are identical, albeit simplified versions of the solution presented herein. Finally, it is demonstrated that errors in past derivations of the undertow profile stem from inconsistencies between (1) the treatment of advective terms in the momentum equations and the wave action equation, (2) the expression of the mean current equation and the surface shear stress, and (3) the omission of bottom shear stress in the momentum equation.
