This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Army Engineer District, Jacksonville, is investigating how to improve tidal flushing in Mill Cove, lower St Johns River, Florida, to maintain water quality and to prevent excessive sedimentation. Four plans have been proposed to reshape the shoreline within the cove. One additional proposed plan will also moldy the bathymetry in the area. RMA2-WES, a two-dimensional, vertically averaged hydrodynamic model, was used to compare the circulation patterns that occur in the present day Mill Cove against the circulation patterns that would result from the five plan configurations. Sediment transport was simulated using SED2D-WES, a two-dimensional, vertically averaged model of sediment advection and dispersion in the water column, with the channel bed acting as a source and/or sink for sediment as it deposits and erodes. Currents and tides were compared to prototype data to validate the numerical model. The study addressed changes within Mill Cove as well as any influence these changes had in the navigation channel.

This book was released on 1994 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The St. Johns River Water Management District and the U.S. Army Engineer District, Jacksonville, desire to quantify the hydrodynamic, sediment transport, and water quality processes of the Lower St. Johns River Estuary (LSJRE). To this end, a comprehensive numerical model development program is planned. In support of this effort, this report reviews the basic equations of estuarine hydrodynamics. Major hydrodynamic modeling technologies are compared and contrasted. The data requirements for application of a hydrodynamic model to the LSJRE are outlined. An approach for developing a system of models and monitoring programs for the LSJRE is recommended. Computer hardware and software issues that will affect the productivity of the modeling system are discussed. Estuarine modeling, Hydrodynamic modeling, Lower St. Johns River Estuary.
Download or read book Sediment Transport and Morphodynamics Modelling for Coasts and Shallow Environments written by Vanesa Magar and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-03-09 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reference for engineers, and graduate students covers sediment transport and morphodynamics modelling in nearshore environments. It presents the fundamentals required for understanding the physics and for setting up numerical models. This book covers hydrodynamics of estuarine and coastal environments, properties of seafloor and estuarine composition, and hydroenvironmental interactions; emphasising the inter-relations of small- and large-scale processes, and short- and large-evolution timescales. The focus is, principally, on the application of shallow-water theory, but some surface wave models, and coupling of shallow-water models with surface waves is also discussed to some extent. The guidance on running regional models and the case studies presented are directed to managed realignment, coastal protection, climate change impacts, and offshore renewables. Key features: Gives a balanced review of this rich interdisciplinary area Bridges practical engineering and research Offers both large- and small-scale application Suits graduate students and researchers as well as consulting engineers Vanesa Magar is a senior researcher and associate professor at the Centro de Investigación Científica y de Educación Superior de Ensenada (CICESE) in Baja California, Mexico. She was formerly a researcher and then a lecturer at Plymouth University, UK.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concentration in the corresponding z-level of the water column. Secondly, the horizontal concentration difference was determined. Finally, the horizontal pressure gradient in the water column was directly calculated from the horizontal concentration gradient. A stepwise bottom boundary condition was adopted for steep slopping bottom boundary. The algorithm has been used to enhance the EFDC model. The model code has been tested in three test cases: 1) flat bottom basin, 2) steep sloping channel, and a coastal shelf. Results indicate that conventional approach in current EFDC dealing with horizontal pressure gradient terms causes spurious surface elevation and velocity field. In comparison, the employment of the algorithm presented in this study this study significantly reduced numerical errors in predicting surface elevation and currents in navigation channels and coastal shelves.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis presents the development work of high resolution 2-dimensional hydro- and morphodynamic numerical models of the Blackbird Creek and Bombay Hook marshes in the Delaware Bay. The goal was to assess the models ability of representing the complex marsh hydrodynamics, to study sediment transport in marshes and exchange processes between marshes and the adjacent bay and to better understand the sensitivity of these complex ecosystems to changes in the bay environment. A high resolution numerical mesh was required to resolve the complex marsh geometry in sufficient detail for the studies. An approach was chosen that mostly employed existing data and only a minimum of additional field surveys. Methods were developed to improve the accuracy of bare ground elevations on vegetated tidal flats and to prepare bathymetry data for tidal channels based on a small number of cross sectional measurements. The model system MARINA2D was tested and validated with the Delaware Bay Model Evaluation Environment from NOAA. Model results of water levels in marshes also showed good agreement with observed data for the Bombay Hook model, yet low water was under predicted in the Blackbird Creek model, likely as a result of higher vertical errors in its initial bathymetry and topography. The Blackbird Creek model was used to assess the models' performance with respect to water levels and velocities. Analysis of the influence of vegetation on erosion and depositions patterns on tidal flats showed that in order to reproduce realistic conditions vegetation needed to be considered in the model forcing. Furthermore, for development of numerical models for marshes, additional modifications were required to correctly represent shallow flow conditions on tidal flats. Scenarios with high, medium, and low suspended sediment concentrations in the Delaware River identified the sensitivity of sediment budgets in the marsh to sources in the river. Tracer studies based on hydrodynamic simulations of the Bombay Hook marsh were performed to identify the system's sensitivity to changes in tidal channel geometry and to find the best location for a channel blockage to prevent sediment transport out of the marsh interior that increasingly suffers from losses. The results showed that the system reacts significantly to small changes in channel geometry. Analysis of three blockage scenarios provided enough information to reveal a possible solution for the marsh loss problem, highlighting the benefit of numerical studies as a tool for decision making in marsh management.
