Abstract: A simplified mathematical modeling methodology is proposed for the assessment of water quality in small tidal inlet systems. Towards this objective, a quasi‐steady, tidal exchange model is developed for predicting the ...

Abstract: This paper describes a new epilimnetic mixing formulation for two‐dimensional reservoir models. This formulation incorporates a wind‐mixing algorithm based on a mixed‐layer theory developed previously for the upper ocean. ...

Abstract: The generation of shallow water tides (overtides) may influence shoaling processes in shallow embayments and harbors. A simplified, conceptual model is developed to simulate the generation of overtides and tidal asymmetries ...

Abstract: Often, the initiation of a total maximum daily load (TMDL) program is delayed until intensive monitoring data can be collected—even in watersheds where large historical data sets exist. This paper provides a case study of ...

Abstract: This paper describes the development and application of a methodology for screening nonpoint‐source‐pollutant impacts on small (i.e., well‐mixed) tidal basins. This methodology is based upon a simplified, filtering‐response ...
