Lagrangian Tracer Transport and Dispersion in Shallow Tidal Inlets & River Mouths

Abstract

Our long-term goals include developing and field-testing numerical models of shallow water breaking waves and wave-driven processes, including currents, and tracer transport and dispersion. Improved prediction of the fate of terrestrial runoff pollution and other substances (e.g. fine sediment, chemicals) sometimes present in very shallow water.
