On the Simulation of Shallow Water Tides in the Vicinity of the Taiwan Banks

The Taiwan Banks (Formosa Shoals), a large NE-SW oriented bathymetric feature near the southern end (23°N, 118 - 119°E) of the Taiwan Strait, is a region of extremely shallow water that exerts a profound effect on the propagation of tidal waves. As such waves propagate over the Taiwan Banks, they be...
