Abstract: A model based on the analytical solution of an advective‐diffusion equation is developed to describe the turbidity plume induced by the operation of a bucket dredge. The model applies to the portion of the plume beyond the ...

Abstract: An attempt was made to couple the water quality model of Danshuei River to the three-dimensional unstructured-grid hydrodynamic model [Eulerian–Lagrangian circulation model (ELCIRC)]. The Eulerian–Lagrangian scheme for the ...

Abstract: The net, long-term transport of materials in estuaries is governed primarily by the residual (or tidally averaged) circulation in the system. Knowledge of the residual circulation is essential for predicting the transport ...

Abstract: A model is developed to describe the turbidity plume induced by dredging a ship channel using an hydraulic dredge. The model predicts the suspended sediment concentration within the plume and the resulting sediment deposition ...

Abstract: In most hydrodynamic models, friction and turbulent diffusion/dispersion coefficients are the important calibration parameters affecting the calculation of surface elevation, velocity and salinity distribution. This paper ...

Abstract: A vertical (laterally integrated) two-dimensional numerical model was applied to study the salt water intrusion in the Tanshui River estuarine system, Taiwan. The river system has experienced dramatic changes in the past ...
