The computational fluid dynamic (CFD) toolbox OpenFOAM is used to assess the
applicability of Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) solvers to the simulation of …

Reliable predictions of future inundation extent within estuaries require a precise evaluation
of future extreme sea levels and the application of accurate numerical models that account …

Understanding how climatic and anthropogenic drivers will influence coastal lagoons is
fundamental to guarantee their preservation and sustainability. The Ria Formosa (coastal …

Minho River intrusion into the Rias Baixas has a twofold impact on estuaries. On the one
hand, freshwater intrusion can modify the water exchange with the shelf affecting the …

Although rising global sea levels will affect the estuarine flooded areas over the coming
decades, the local and regional-scale processes will also induce important changes in these …

Saltwater intrusion into a river with high fluvial discharge: A microtidal estuary of the …

Shallow coastal lagoons driven by tidal processes are extremely dynamic environments
prone to continuous natural and anthropogenic pressures. The hydrodynamics of these …

A three-dimensional hydrodynamic model that includes a Lagrangian particle-tracking
simulation was applied to the Danshuei River estuarine system in northern Taiwan. The …

In a tidal stream project the selection of the most appropriate device is of major importance.
The aim of this work is to investigate the difference between two tidal farms, one with floating …

Estuarine floods are one of the most harmful and complex extreme events occurring in
coastal environments. To predict the associated effects, characterize areas of risk, and …
