Tidal River Flow Calculations with Measured Velocities on the Open Boundaries

  • Conference paper
Book cover Finite Elements in Water Resources

Abstract

A two-dimensional tidal model for shallow waters using measured velocity cross-profiles on the open boundaries is described. Comparisons of numerical results with measured field-data are performed. The influence of model parameters on the calculated flow fields is discussed.
