Hydrodynamic Modeling and Simulation of Water Residence Time in the Estuary of the Lower Amazon River

Hydrodynamic Modeling and Simulation of Water Residence Time in the Estuary of the Lower Amazon River

Studies about the hydrodynamic behavior in the lower Amazon River remain scarce, despite their relevance and complexity, and the Water Residence Time (Rt) of this Amazonian estuary remains poorly unknown. Therefore, the present study aims to numerically simulate three seasonal Rt scenarios based on...
