Accuracy of an estuarine hydrodynamic model using smooth elements

Water Resources Research, 1980
A finite element model which uses triangular, isoparametric elements with quadratic basis functions for the two velocity components and linear basis functions for water surface elevation is used in the computation of shallow water wave motions. Specifically addressed are two common uncertainties in this class of two‐dimensional hydrodynamic models: the

Bathymetric error estimation for the calibration and validation of estuarine hydrodynamic models

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2012
Abstract This paper investigates the impact of uncertainty in the definition of bathymetry on the performance of estuarine shallow water models. A depth-averaged hydrodynamic model is used to simulate tidal flows in a meso-tidal estuary. Simulations are performed for a range of bathymetric and bed roughness scenarios, which encompass the ...

On Modeling Three-Dimensional Estuarine and Marine Hydrodynamics

1987
Abstract Recent advances of a three-dimensional numerical model of estuarine and marine hydrodynamics are described in this paper. In particular, the parameterization of the vertical turbulent transport based on a Reynolds stress model and the adaptation of a generalized curvilinear (or “boundary-fitted”) grid to the finite-difference model are ...

Hydrodynamic Control of the Supply of Suspended Chlorophyll to Infaunal Estuarine Bivalves

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 1998
Abstract Spatio-temporal variation in the supply of suspended chlorophyllain the Eel River, Nova Scotia, Canada was examined in relation to the feeding regime of bivalve molluscs. Estuarine circulation patterns were deduced from semi-synoptic profiles of tidal height, salinity and chlorophyllaconcentration.

Hydrodynamics and Associated Morphological Variations on an Estuarine Intertidal Sand Flat

Journal of Coastal Research, 2007
Abstract Hydrodynamics, sediment suspension, and morphological response on an estuarine intertidal sand flat in Tokyo Bay, Japan, are examined through a field experiment performed for 16 days in winter 2000 and using a bathymetry data set based on a 6-year series of surveys.
