A Mathematical Model for the Prediction of Unsteady Salinity Intrusion in Estuaries
(Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory for Water Resources and Hydrodynamics, Department of Civil Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1972-02)The salinity structure of a tidal estuary fed by upstream fresh water sources is an important factor of water quality. In addition, this structure is intimately related to the circulation of the estuary because of density ... -
Simulation of Observed Topography Using a Physically-based Basin Evolution Model
(Cambridge, Mass. : Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory, Hydrology and Water Resources, Dept. of Civil Engineering, School of Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1994-10)This work presents a model for basin evolution and a procedure for estimating the parameters of this model to reproduce a given topography. The model is calibrated based on three measures: the slope-area relationship, the ...
