The application of inverse methods for resolving velocity, density and mixing fields in lakes and estuaries.

这两项将在这里开发和测试的技术将允许只使用简单的仪器和最小的湖泊障碍测量湖泊和河口的三维密度和速度场。与实时管理系统相结合，这些技术可以用于验证数值模型和模拟情景，例如未来的洪水事件，这些情景可能会污染水质。然后，这些模拟的输出被再次实时地用于评估新的水体可持续功能指数。当这项研究的结果得到加强时，我们将拥有一个工具，帮助管理湖泊和水库，以优化水质，同时保持供应。

The two techniques to be developed and tested here will allow the measurement of the 3D density and velocity fields in lakes and estuaries using only simple instruments and with minimum lake obstruction. Coupled with a Real Time Management System, these techniques can be used to validate numerical models and to simulate scenarios, such as future flood events, which have the potential for contamination of water quality. The output from these simulations is then used, again in real time, to evaluate the new Index of Sustainable Functionality of the water body. When augmented with the results from this research we would have a tool that would help manage lakes and reservoirs to optimize the water quality, while maintaining the supply.
