Along much of the shoreline of the world, tidal inlets play an important role in nearshore processes, providing links between the coastal oceans and protected embayments. Their study is of particular importance not only for the understanding of fundamental processes in coastal oceanography but also for engineering and the proper management of the delicate equilibrium of our shorelines. This volume, based on the International Symposium on Hydrodynamics and Sediment Dynamics of Tidal Inlets held at Woods Hole, MA, presents the reader with an overview of contemporary research on these important features. The coverage includes: - mathematical modelling, including a review of inlet hydrodynamics, - observations on hydrodynamics, - sedimentology and morphology, - tidal deltas, - processes and policies pertaining to sedimentation, and the - impacts of shore protection and dredging in beaches.

This book describes the latest developments in the hydrodynamics and morphodynamics of tidal inlets, with an emphasis on natural inlets. A review of morphological features and sand transport pathways is presented, followed by an overview of empirical relationships between inlet cross-sectional area, ebb delta volume, flood delta volume and tidal prism. Results of field observations and laboratory experiments are discussed and simple mathematical models are presented that calculate the inlet current and basin tide. The method to evaluate the cross-sectional stability of inlets, proposed by Escoffier, is reviewed, and is expanded, for the first time, to include double inlet systems. This volume is an ideal reference for coastal scientists, engineers and researchers, in the fields of coastal engineering, geomorphology, marine geology and oceanography.

This textbook provides an in-depth overview of the hydrodynamics of estuaries and semi-enclosed bodies of water. It begins by describing the typical classification of estuaries, followed by a presentation of the quantitative tools needed to study these basins: conservation of mass, salt, heat, momentum, and the thermodynamic equation of seawater. Further topics explore tides in homogeneous basins, including shallow water tides and tidal residual flows, wind-driven flows in homogeneous basins, density-driven flows, as well as interactions among tides, winds and density gradients. The book proposes a classification of semi-enclosed basins that is based on dominant dynamics, comparing forcing agents and restorative or balancing forces. Introduction to Estuarine Hydrodynamics provides an introduction for advanced students and researchers across a range of disciplines - Earth science, environmental science, biology, chemistry, geology, hydrology, physics - related to the study of estuarine systems.

V monografiji je opisan postopek za hidrodinamično modeliranje plimskih elektrarn. V luči podnebnih sprememb bodo imele plimske elektrarne pomembno vlogo pri prehodu na obnovljive vire energije in razogljičenje družbe. Plimovanje namreč ni odvisno od vremenskih razmer in je popolnoma predvidljivo, z možnostjo natančnih napovedi več let v prihodnost. Glavna pomanjkljivost plimskih elektrarn je njihova omejenost na območja z intenzivnim plimovanjem, kot so atlantske obale Združenega Kraljestva, Francije in Kanade ter druge oceanske obale po svetu. Vloga hidrodinamičnih modelov pri načrtovanju hidroelektrarn je predvsem v razumevanje okolijskih vplivov in optimizaciji delovanja same elektrarne. Tematsko je knjiga razdeljena v tri sklope. Prvi nudi širši vpogled v ozadje plimskih elektrarn ter preuči že objavljeno strokovno literaturo. V drugem sledi podroben opis teoretičnih osnov ter sama metodologija za numerično modeliranje z uporabo odprtokodne programske opreme Delft3D. Zadnji sklop zajemata študiji primera na katerih je bila metodologija preizkušena, ki obravnavata hidrodinamične vplive dveh predlaganih plimskih elektrarn v Združenem Kraljestvu in sicer pregrado preko estuarija reke Severn in umetno laguno v zalivu Swansea.
