Title: Calculation of the tide and sediment transport in Qiantang estuary by a 2D numerical model
Abstract: This paper presents a 2D numerical model of shallow flow that was developed to simulate the strong tidal flow and sediment transport in the Qiantang estuary,and was calibrated by using the measured data of the cross-sectional averages of water level,flow velocity and sediment concentration and the cross-sectional distribution of sediment transport load.An analysis of the tidal flow and sediment transport behaviors is also presented.
