Transport processes: Time scale correlation between flow and scalar concentration Chris Enright CWEMF DSM2 Workshop February 6, 2007

Or, how Geometry “filters” estuarine drivers (tides, river input) Chris Enright CWEMF DSM2 Workshop February 6, 2007

Transport processes For modeling purposes, validate that DSM2 transports salt etc. for the right reason… Reasons: Advection and dispersion

Advective Transport Correlation between net flow and net scalar concentration Mostly from river input and spring-neap estuary fill-drain cycle Advective Flux =

Dispersive Transport Correlation between tidal flow and tidal scalar concentration Driven by tide Dispersive Flux =

Total Flux Superposition of advective and dispersive flux. Total Flux = advection + disperion = + Compute with model output and field data and compare.
