Seasonal renewal time variability in the Curonian Lagoon caused by atmospheric and hydrographical forcing

The aim of this study was to investigate the variability of the water exchanges in the Curonian Lagoon based on the hydraulic regime and the atmospheric forcings. A finite element hydrodynamic model has been applied to the Curonian Lagoon to simulate the circulation patterns for 10 years. With the h...
