Book Description
The equations of motion and energy for an estuarine system are set up. The mean equations are obtained and the averaging operator is investigated. A comparison between the Silver Bay theory is made. The importance of the averaging process, the mean steady state, the tidal velocity and the lateral velocity are re-evaluated. The simplified mean equations of flow are then obtained. The numerical equation for evaluation of pressure gradients and the velocity cross-products are obtained. Curvature effects are found to be of importance. Second order terms are investigated and numerical equations for the evaluation of vz are found. Some data from the Alaska Water Pollution Control Board is investigated. It is found that the Silver Bay Study neglected to consider some important factors. Lateral flows tidal motion and river run-off need more consideration. A Statistical consideration of data is found to be important. By hypothesis testing a clearer concept of the values of the assumptions can be made. It is found that much more data is needed.

Fundamentals of Estuarine Physical Oceanography
Author: Luiz Bruner de Miranda
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9811030413
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 506
Book Description
This book provides an introduction to the complex system functions, variability and human interference in ecosystem between the continent and the ocean. It focuses on circulation, transport and mixing of estuarine and coastal water masses, which is ultimately related to an understanding of the hydrographic and hydrodynamic characteristics (salinity, temperature, density and circulation), mixing processes (advection and diffusion), transport timescales such as the residence time and the exposure time. In the area of physical oceanography, experiments using these water bodies as a natural laboratory and interpreting their circulation and mixing processes using theoretical and semi-theoretical knowledge are of fundamental importance. Small-scale physical models may also be used together with analytical and numerical models. The book highlights the fact that research and theory are interactive, and the results provide the fundamentals for the development of the estuarine research.
