Modeling Penetration of Tide-Influenced Waves in Le Havre Harbor

Abstract: The access channel to Le Havre harbor (France, English Channel) experiences significant tideinduced variation of wave height associated with current-refraction. The present study analyzes the penetration of these modulated waves in the harbor basin Hubert Raoul-Duval of the new Port 2000 infrastructures. A numerical approach is adopted on the basis of a phase-resolving model driven by external-predicted height, period and direction of approaching waves submitted to tide-induced variations. Numerical results of… Show more

“…Finally, at a local scale, larval dispersal through oceanographic constraints will play a major role in the potential spread of dock mussels and dispersal models for NIS in ports will be needed (see David, Matthee, Loveday, & Simon, , for an example at a large scale). While some studies of water flows, tide or wave physical constraints in ports of the English Channel exist (Guillou & Chapalain, , ; Jouanneau, Sentchev, & Dumas, ), none include a biological module. A study of wave entrance in the southern basin of Le Havre would suggest the likely dispersal of M. edulis larvae within this basin (Guillou & Chapalain, ), while the whole basin proved populated by dock mussels, providing further evidence for habitat choice or early‐stage selection.…”

“…TELEMAC-2D, coupled with TOMAWAC, has been successfully applied to studies of WCI in various coastal systems (e.g. [7,32,33]). In a similar fashion, the present study uses the TELEMAC-2D module, internally coupled with TOMAWAC module, to study WCI in the ME.…”

“…The numerical applications demonstrated the significant influence of tidal flow on wave height variation in estuaries (e.g. [6][7][8][9]). It is widely found that wave height modulates with the tide, and an opposing tidal flow increases wave height whereas a following tidal flow decreases wave height in a coastal region.…”

“…The choice of ARTEMIS as one of the three components of the interactive model developed in this project, along with its status as a freely distributed code, is also due to: successful testing of ARTEMIS for a large number of seaport projects, for example [14][15][16][17], as well as a set of tests, which, in comparison with the measurement data, are presented in the model documentation; the availability of both a version for regular waves and a spectral version of the model.…”
