From regional to local scale modelling on the south-eastern Brazilian shelf: case study of Paranaguá estuarine system

Abstract The applicability of a numerical model following a downscaling methodology was evaluated for the south-eastern Brazilian shelf (regional model) and Paranaguá estuarine system (local model). This approach permits the simulation of different scale processes, such as storm surges and coastal u...
