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: The effects of mangrove trees on the flow field in a tidal estuary during high freshwater discharge events are investigated using a depth-averaged two-dimensional hydrodynamic model. The model is refined to include the ...

Abstract: A flood routing model with time-varying roughness updating was developed to simulate flows through natural channels based on the dynamic wave theory. Taking observed stages as the targets, a roughness updating technique ...

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 ...
