Control of Flood and Salinity Intrusion Caused by Sea Level Rise

海平面上升的潜在影响 河口环境，特别是威胁 盐水入侵，将由 数学模拟时变 潮汐高度、海流和盐度。 与 从选定的河口测量 参数研究将在 预计的海平面上升、水流、风暴 涌浪、河道糙率和横浪变化 为了获得深入的了解， 了解河口过程。 的 研究将审查目前的情况， 未来可能的海平面， 没有一些控制措施。 的结果 这项工作将适用于其他 河口和用于河口管理， 流域规划。

The potential impacts of sea level rise on estuarine environments, especially the threat of saline intrusion, will be examined by mathematically simulating the time-varying tidal height, currents and salinity. With measurements from a selected estuary parametric studies will be conducted on projected sea level rise, stream flow, storm surge, channel roughness, and change in cross- section profile in order to garner an in-depth understanding of estuarine processes. The study will examine present conditions versus possible future sea levels, and with and without some control measures. The results of this work will be applicable to other estuaries and used in estuarine management and river basin planning.
