Tidal asymmetry and velocity skew over tidal flats and shallow channels within a macrotidal river delta

NJ Nidzieko, DK Ralston - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
It is often assumed that, in short, shallow estuaries, at leading order velocity and elevation
are exactly out of phase, so that duration asymmetries in the rise and fall of the tide should …
