Abstract:Hydrodynamic modeling is usually necessary for predicting water deliveries to marshes from source reservoirs. A novel approach is developed that decouples the delivery structure hydraulics from the marsh hydrodynamics, allowing these components to be analyzed both separately and in combination. This approach is applied to assess the effectiveness of incorporating spreader canals into water delivery systems in Everglades National Park. The results show that Manning's n in the marsh can be reasonably approximate… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
