Abstract:
Worldwide, hundreds of millions of people who live on or near estuarine environments are vulnerable to sea level rise (SLR). Using clustering techniques and moving beyond static models and case studies, this study used a large ensemble of idealised estuary models of varying scale, geometry, level of entrance constriction, and SLR scenarios. It was found that tidal forcing, degree of entrance restriction, and estuarine length can primarily control the tidal dynamics of prismatic estuaries under SLR. Further, restricting an entrance can be presented as a potential solution to offset SLR induced tidal amplification if the associated impacts on entrance stability, navigation, and flooding are considered.Recorded Presentation from the vICCE (YouTube Link): https://youtu.be/vOptOAbqN3U

Abstract:
The hydrodynamics, morphology and sedimentology of the Taperaçu estuary were investigated. This is one of several estuaries located within the largest mangrove fringe in the world, bordering the Amazon region, subject to a macrotidal regime and regionally atypical negligible fresh water supply. The results reveal widespread sand banks that occupy the central portion of the estuarine cross-section. Well-sorted very fine sandy sediments of marine origin prevail. Shorter flood phases, with substantially higher current velocities, were observed in the upper sector of Taperaçu, as expected for a shallow, friction-dominated estuary. However, ebb domination can be expected for estuaries with large associated mangrove areas and substantial estuarine infilling, both of which situations occur on the Taperaçu. The tidal asymmetry favoring flood currents could be the result of the absence of an effective fluvial discharge. Furthermore, it was observed that the Taperaçu is connected by tidal creeks to the neighboring Caeté estuary, allowing a stronger flux during the flood and intensifying the higher flood currents. As a whole, the results have shown a complex interaction of morphological aspects (friction, fluvial drainage, connections with neighbor estuaries, infilling and large storage area) in determining hydrodynamic patterns, thus improving the understanding of Amazon estuaries.

Abstract:
The assessment of suspended-solids dynamics is crucial for the effective monitoring of estuarine environments. As the recurring in-situ sampling is usually problematic, the calibration of the backscattering from acoustic Doppler profilers has shown to be a reliable technique to estimate the suspended-solids concentration (SSC) in estuaries and rivers. In this study, we obtained a linear model that provides SSC estimates for the estuarine channel of Patos Lagoon by calibrating turbidity and acoustic data with in-situ concentration samples. The model output was analyzed in terms of its relationship with estuarine hydrodynamics and temporal variability. In this estuary, the supply of suspended solids is known to be due the runoff from its main tributaries, but also through the exchanges between the estuary and the coastal ocean. Both sources provide sediments and organic solids which affect water quality, geomorphology, and harbor operations. Results show that SSC is strongly linked to estuarine hydrodynamics, where concentrations increase with streamflow. During outflow periods, higher concentrations are associated with river runoff, whereas with inflow conditions they are induced by southern and southwesterly winds. However, relationship between SSC and streamflow is asymmetrical, meaning that the largest concentrations are majorly linked to outflow currents and downstream transport.

Abstract:
If the impact of longitudinal density gradient on the hydrodynamics of estuaries is negligible, then in water quality simulations, the hydrodynamics can be decoupled from the mass transport which would lead to substantial savings in computational time and storage requirements. It is thus important to be able to assess this impact beforehand. The impact of longitudinal density gradients is evaluated analytically in the context of a one-dimensional wide rectangular channel taking into account the influence of bed slope, bottom friction, type of boundary condition and transient effects. The analysis predicts actual errors that would arise in numerical computations from near exactly in the best cases to within a factor of 6 in the worst cases. It should thus be useful for at least an order of magnitude prediction of the errors that would arise from the neglect of the effect of longitudinal density gradient on estuarine hydrodynamics.

Abstract:
Coastal infrastructure alterations, such as jetty expansions, are designed to provide improvements to natural dredging and safety of marine access and to maximize the management and efficiency of ports. Furthermore, these alterations have the potential to cause significant environmental changes to estuaries and adjacent coastal areas. Here, the hydrodynamics of Pathos Lagoon was investigated before and after the jetty alterations, where the jetty was increased by approximately 10–18% and the mouth width was reduced by 15%. The TELEMAC-3D numerical model was calibrated and validated using the field data, and then simulated for characteristic low and high extreme discharge years for the old and new jetty configurations. Results showed a flow reduction of approximately 20% both in the ebb and flood conditions in the new configuration, which was accompanied by a slight change in the propagation angle of the western jetty current. Reduction of the saltwater intrusion was registered during both the high and low discharge conditions with the new jetty configuration. During the high discharge periods with NE winds, saltwater intrusion did not reach the previous estuarine inland boundary. During the period of low discharge with SW wind, salinity did not reach further than 180 km inland. Reduced saltwater intrusion was estimated landwards and in the shallow embayments. The horizontal stratification structure of the salinity changed, with the partial centralization of the flow in the access channel. The observed hydrodynamic changes from the infrastructure modifications could affect the estuarine ecosystem by increasing the sediment retention, reducing the transport of marine organisms and water properties into the estuary. This study contributes not only to the understanding of hydrodynamic changes but also to the potential optimization of estuarine and coastal management strategies.

Abstract:
Abstract. This study presents the first regional-scale assessment of estuarine CO2 evasion along the US East Coast (25–45° N). The focus is on 42 tidal estuaries, which together drain a catchment of 697 000 km2 or 76 % of the total area within this latitudinal band. The approach is based on the Carbon–Generic Estuary Model (C-GEM) that allows the simulation of hydrodynamics, transport, and biogeochemistry for a wide range of estuarine systems using readily available geometric parameters and global databases of seasonal climatic, hydraulic, and riverine biogeochemical information. Our simulations, performed using conditions representative of the year 2000, suggest that, together, US East Coast estuaries emit 1.9 Tg C yr−1 in the form of CO2, which corresponds to about 40 % of the carbon inputs from rivers, marshes, and mangroves. Carbon removal within estuaries results from a combination of physical (outgassing of supersaturated riverine waters) and biogeochemical processes (net heterotrophy and nitrification). The CO2 evasion and its underlying drivers show important variations across individual systems, but reveal a clear latitudinal pattern characterized by a decrease in the relative importance of physical over biogeochemical processes along a north–south gradient. Finally, the results reveal that the ratio of estuarine surface area to the river discharge, S∕Q (which has a scale of per meter discharged water per year), could be used as a predictor of the estuarine carbon processing in future regional- and global-scale assessments.

Abstract:
Using the Mississippi River as a tool for restoration has been a key element of restoration planning in Louisiana for decades. The results of allowing river water and sediment back into the coastal system are manifested in a number of places in present day Louisiana, with additional plans for large scale sediment and water diversions from the Mississippi River. Many previous numerical modeling studies have focused on sediment delivery to Louisiana estuaries. This study examines the effects of river diversions on salinity gradients in receiving estuarine basins. The Integrated Compartment Model, a planning-level model that simulates multi-decadal change in estuarine hydrodynamics and wetland systems under assumed sea-level rise scenarios, was used to assess the estuarine salinity gradient under potential management regimes. The simulations for current conditions are compared to a future 50-year simulation with additional diversions, as well as cases with a variety of diversion options. This modeling analysis shows that without additional action, 50-years of sea-level rise could result in substantial increases in salinity throughout the Mississippi Delta Plain estuaries. This can be largely offset with additional large river diversions which can maintain variable salinity gradients throughout the estuary basins.

Abstract:
A l-D tidally resolving hydrodynamic model of the Tweed Estuary has been encoded using the Estuarine Contaminant Simulator, ECoS. The model results of axial and time series variations in water elevation, salinity and turbidity are compared to field data recorded during the LOIS survey programme. The organic and inorganic controls on estuarine pH have also been investigated by encoding a new template to predict the effect of changing salinity and temperature on the pH of estuarine water. The template has been coupled to the hydrodynamic model to predict pH variations in the estuary. The model results have shown conservative behaviour of the inorganic carbon system through out the majority of the estuary, but also identified an area of potentially high photosynthetic activity near the limit of saline intrusion during periods of low summer flows. Low (< 2 ^g 1"') concentrations of chlorophyll a in the water column and increases in pH correlated with tidal inundation of the river estuary banks imply that benthic photosynthetic process are important water chemistry in the upper estuary. The effects of salinity, turbidity and pH on Kd(Cd) and K<i(Zn) has been investigated using radiotracer incubation experiments and analytically determined measurements. The results show a reduction in IQ with increased salinity, but that the K<iS determined analytically are an order of magnitude higher than those measured when radiotracers are used. Analytically determined K<iS are reduced with increasing SPM concentration and increased at higher pH. Although no photosynthetically mediated control of radiotracer uptake was identified partitioning was significantly reduced (> 90 %) when a metabolic inhibitor was added. The Kd has been encoded as an exchange transfer and used to predict axial distributions and the flux of these metals from the riverine catchment to the sea. Model results indicate that the partition coefficients determined fi-om the radiotracer studies can not fully account for the analytically determined distribution between phases. It is hypothesised that colloids and Fe-Mn oxides precipitates play a significant role in trace metal transpon in low turbidity, high pH conditions. The results have implications for the measurement and modelling of chemical fluxes in low turbidity systems.

Abstract:
Hydrokinetic tidal power is a novel and emergent technology undergoing continuous advancement with much of the progress focused on large utility scale projects. This resource is potentially underutilized because much of the coastal United States, despite having substantial tidal currents, do not have the deep and wide environments required by most of the developing turbine technology. This dissertation includes a detailed characterization of the tidal hydrodynamics for Rose Dhu Island, Georgia used for a tidal energy resource assessment as well as a general feasibility study for tidal estuaries with extensive wetlands. For predictions and evaluation of the estuarine hydrodynamics, data from an existing numerical model of the estuary encompassing the island is utilized. Field measurements in close proximity to the island are used to calibrate the model as well as characterize local hydrodynamic features. After the model calibration, the simulation data is used to evaluate the hydrodynamics. Wetland dominated estuaries commonly have a high degree of non-linear distortion which govern the relative durations and strengths of the tidal stages and thus the overall hydrodynamics and incoming hydrokinetic energy. The Ogeechee Estuary is characterized as ebb dominant with peak ebb and flood volume fluxes near high tide as a result of the increased storage capacity of the wetlands. Lowering the average wetland elevation in the model decreased ebb dominance and quickened the transition from flood to ebb tide. Increased domain friction in the model removed energy from the system and reduced ebb dominance. Enhanced model marsh friction reduced lateral flooding of the wetlands as well as ebb dominance. Localized measurements surrounding the island are analyzed to determine a location near the southwest coast of the island as a hydrokinetic energy hotspot. A kinematic and dynamic analysis is performed using channel transect measurements to identify key physical processes behind the hotspot formation. The hotspot forms due to sub-critical flow acceleration over a singular bump in the topography. High streamwise momentum is further concentrated at the hotspot due to secondary circulation cells across the channel. Flood tide circulation is characterized by two co-rotating cells induced by channel curvature and delineated by the bump. Ebb circulation consists of two counter-rotating cells from flow confluence of two upstream channels. Once the hydrodynamics are understood, the theoretical and technical resource assessment of the island is completed. A sensitivity analysis of hydrokinetic energy and tidal distortion is performed on synthetic data. For a principle constituent and its first harmonic, distortion greatly changes as does the distribution of velocities and energy as the relative phase varies. While the theoretical energy remains consistent, the technical energy can greatly vary. This effect is reduced with the addition semi-lunar variation. Using a simplified analytical method, the maximum average channel power is estimated as 8.80 MW. For the hotspot it is estimated that there is 30.3 MWh available to capture yearly with an average power of 3.46 kW for a turbine with an area of 10 square meters. For the same turbine area with conservative efficiencies, the hotspot could provide a yearly technical energy of 10.9 MWh with an average power of 1.25kW for the island. Due to the complex localized hydrodynamics, both the theoretical and technical resource varies greatly across and along the channel. These considerations are more pertinent when performing a hydrokinetic energy resource assessment in a marsh estuary than for large scale bay-ocean exchange environments, the present industry focus.

Thesis (MEng)--Stellenbosch University, 2013.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The Touw River estuary and Wilderness coastal lakes is a sensitive system from a flooding and ecological viewpoint and, therefore, careful consideration is placed on the hydrodynamics and salinity levels within the system. The estuary consists of a “temporary open/closed” estuary, where during closed mouth conditions, the sand bar at the estuary mouth is artificially managed in an attempt to reduce flood water levels in the system. The reason behind this management strategy is the construction of residential property along the flood plains of the estuary and coastal lakes, which in the past, had been exposed to regular cycles of inundation during flood events. In an attempt to reduce flood water levels in all water bodies and hence reduce the risk of inundation, a management policy was formulated. The past and present management plan is to maintain the sand bar at Touw estuary mouth, during closed mouth conditions, at an elevation of between +2.1m to +2.4m MSL, based on proposals made by the CSIR in 1981. Recent flood events, after the implementation of the management policy, still occasionally result in significant inundation of residential property, which has raised concern for some interested parties over the effectiveness of the management strategy. Furthermore, a growing concern was also evident over the long term wellbeing of the system from an ecological viewpoint. Historical data shows significant changes in salinity levels since the implementation of the management strategy which could impose negative long term effects on the system. In this study, numerical models were consequently constructed and applied in order to analyse the effectiveness of the current management policy and recalculate flood water levels under a number of proposed scenarios. Long term salinity changes were also analysed in an attempt to better understand salinity propagation throughout the system, using extreme hypothetical cases. Through the analysis of the simulation results, it was concluded that flood water levels in the Touw estuary were almost completely dependent on the size of the Touw River flood and the initial height of the sand bar at the estuary mouth. Whereas, water levels in the coastal lakes are almost entirely dependent on the quantity of runoff into the lakes and their initial water levels. The current management plan, involving only artificial manipulation of the sand bar at the estuary mouth, therefore has a fairly insignificant effect on flood water levels achieved in the coastal lakes. Furthermore, it was concluded that the construction of the preparatory channel is a vitally important aspect of the current management plan and that skimming of the sand bar alone is ineffective to completely mitigate the risk of residential inundation along the banks of the Touw River. The salinity modelling study provided a first indication of the salinity characteristics within the system. It was found that the penetration of seawater into the system was less prominent as the water bodies became further removed from the ocean and that a direct relationship was evident between the volume of direct freshwater inflow to a water body and the degree of salinity variation in that specific water body. In water bodies with high volumes of direct freshwater inflow such as the Touw estuary, a large degree of salinity variation is evident. However, in water bodies with no freshwater inflow, such as Rondevlei, salinity levels remain more stable and are less likely to fluctuate.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Uit ‘n vloed- en ekologiese oogpunt is die Touwsriviermonding en Wilderniskusmere ‘n uiters sensitiewe stelsel en daar is dus deeglike oorweging gegee aan die hidrodinamika en soutvlakke in die stelsel. Die monding bestaan uit 'n "tydelike oop / geslote" monding, en tydens geslote mondtoestande word die sandbank by die riviermond kunsmatig beheer in 'n poging om vloedwatervlakke binne die stelsel te verminder. Die rede vir hierdie strategie is omdat baie residensiële eiendomme langs die vloedvlaktes van die monding en kusmere gebou is, wat in die verlede aan 'n gereelde siklus van oorstromings blootgestel is tydens vloede. In 'n poging om vloedwatervlakke in al die watermassas te verminder, en sodoende die risiko van oorstroming te verminder, is 'n bestuursbeleid geformuleer. In beide die vorige en die huidige bestuursplanne is die sandbank in die Touwsriviermond tydens geslote mondtoestande in stand gehou op 'n hoogte van tussen 2,1 m en 2,4 m MSL, gebaseer op die voorstelle wat deur die WNNR in 1981 gemaak is. Onlangse vloede wat plaasgevind het na die implementering van die beleid, het steeds van tyd tot tyd gelei tot noemenswaardige oorstromings van residensiële eiendomme, en kommer is uitgespreek deur 'n paar belanghebbende partye oor die doeltreffendheid van die strategie vir die bestuur. Daar is verder kommer uitgespreek oor die langtermyn welstand van die stelsel uit 'n ekologiese oogpunt. Historiese data toon 'n beduidende verandering in soutvlakke sedert die implementering van die bestuurstrategie met ‘n negatiewe langtermyn uitwerking op die stelsel. In hierdie studie is daar derhalwe numeriese modelle opgestel en toegepas ten einde die doeltreffendheid van die huidige bestuur van die beleid te bepaal, asook om die vloedvlakke te herbereken en te analiseer na aanleiding van 'n aantal voorgestelde scenario's. Langtermyn soutgehalte veranderinge is ook ontleed in 'n poging om die soutgehalte verspreiding deur die hele stelsel beter te verstaan, deur gebruik te maak van uiterste hipotetiese gevalle. Deur die ontleding van die simulasie resultate, is daar tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat vloedwatervlakke in die Touwsrivier-monding byna heeltemal afhanklik was van die grootte van die Touwsrivier vloed en die aanvanklike hoogte van die sandbank by die riviermond. Watervlakke in die kusmere is egter byna heeltemal afhanklik van die hoeveelheid afloop na die mere en die aanvanklike watervlakke. Die huidige bestuursplan, wat slegs ‘n kunsmatige manipulasie van die sandbank by die riviermond behels, het dus 'n redelik onbeduidend invloed op die vloedwatervlakke wat in die kusmere bereik is. Daar is verder tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat die konstruksie van die voorbereidende kanaal 'n uiters belangrike aspek van die huidige bestuursplan is, en dat die afskraping van die sandbank alleen oneffektief sou wees om die risiko van residensiële oorstroming langs die oewer van die Touwsrivier uit te skakel. Die soutgehalte modelleringstudie verskaf 'n eerste aanduiding van die soutgehalte eienskappe binne die stelsel. Daar is gevind dat die penetrasie van seewater in die stelsel minder prominent was as in die watermassas verder van die see af, en dat daar 'n duidelike direkte verband is tussen die volume van die varswater wat direk invloei na 'n watermassa en die mate van soutgehalte variasie in daardie spesifieke watermassa. In watermassas waar hoë volumes varswater direk invloei soos die Touwsrivier-monding, is 'n groot mate van soutgehalte variasie sigbaar. In die watermassas waar geen varswater invloei nie, soos die Rondevlei, bly soutvlakke meer stabiel en is minder geneig om te wissel.

Abstract:
With predicted climate change and sea level rise, the understanding of estuarine systems becomes more critical so as to gain an insight into the stability of the coastal environment both for environmental and economic reasons. The combined influence of tide and meteorological effects on the erosion, transport, deposition, consolidation cycle (ETDC) of intertidal sediment is not well understood. To further the knowledge into this area an intensive data collection program was conducted in the previously hydraulically un-investigated, macro-tidal estuarine lagoon at Pagham Harbour, Sussex. Monitoring of variations in the elevation of the mudflats indicate that generally accretion occurs in the west of harbour, with the east acting as source as well as a temporary storage area for the sediment which is primarily imported from the English Channel during winter storm periods. The redistribution of the sediment is dependant upon exposure to predominant wind direction, wind speed and local channel geomorphology. Monitoring of the water column identified that sediment is moved landward by means of a peak in turbidity which occurs at the beginning of each flood tide. This sediment movement is enhanced by tidal pumping caused by saline stratification which occurs at the onset of each flood tide as a result of a combination of the harbours' geomorphology and of the control of freshwater input. Precipitation during low tide causes eroded sediment to migrate towards the channels of the harbour, and the increase in freshwater discharge moves loosely consolidated sediment seaward. High freshwater events also retard the advancement of the saline water, prolonging the duration of the peak in turbidity. The magnitude of the peak is controlled by tidal range and recent precipitation events. Calibration of an "off the shelf coastal model highlighted the need for more data collection so that the accuracy of the prediction of the tidal curve, which directly influences depth and velocity, can be improved. Changes in climate and sea level are rendering coastal defences unsustainable, with management plans becoming outdated at an accelerating rate. Knowledge gained from these investigations can aid coastal manager to make more informed decisions for future management strategies in Pagham Harbour and at other coastal sites.

Abstract:
The Brunswick area consists of many acres of estuarine and marsh environments. The US Army Corps of Engineers District, Savannah, requested that the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center, Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory, develop a validated Adaptive Hydraulics model and assist in using it to perform hydrodynamic modeling of proposed navigation channel modifications. The modeling results are necessary to provide data for ship simulation. The model setup and validation are presented here.
