The tide-induced net advective salt flux in well-mixed estuaries consists of five terms according to the method from Kjerfve. The term resulted from the vertical variation in salinity can be negligible in well-mixed estuaries with four tide-induced salt flux terms, known as F
In coastal seas and estuaries, the presence of periodic forces, e.g. tides, results in the fluctuation of sediment transports. Therefore, the study of residual sediment transport in a tidal environment is more practical rather than sediment transport itself. Based on the assumpti
...
The flow and sediment transport in the Yangtze Estuary are intrinsically complex because various processes and mechanisms are involved on a large range of temporal and spatial scales. In this thesis the interaction of river discharge and tidal wave with the corresponding sediment

Model input reduction and morphological acceleration techniques to bridge the large time scale of morphological evolution and the small time scale of hydrodynamically driven sediment transport is investigated for the Yangtze Estuary morphodynamic model. The discharge series of th

A process-based model for the Yangtze Estuary is constructed to study the sediment transport in the estuary. The proposed model covers the entire tidal region of the estuary, the Hangzhou Bay and a large part of the adjacent sea. The dominant processes, fluvial and tidal, are inc
