Descrição

Book edited by Harry Edmar Schulz, André Luiz Andrade Simões and Raquel Jahara Lobosco • Short characterization of estuarine systems and the Mondego estuary (Portugal); • Research methods: sampling program description and mathematical integrated modelling (hydroinformatic tool presentation) • Hydrodynamic estuarine modelling, including calibration and validation procedures; • New approach for tidal prism and flow estimation in estuaries, using mathematical modelling. • Estuarine dispersion conditions, including the assessment of saline wedge propagation into the Mondego estuary. • Influence of tides and freshwater discharges on residence time spatial distribution in the Mondego estuary.
