The dynamics of a tidal intrusion front in a natural estuary : effects on multibeam sonar accuracy

This research has utilised high-resolution measurements of density and velocity to investigate the formation of a transient tidal intrusion front in a narrow, macrotidal estuary, and model the impact of such a frontal system on the accuracy of multibeam sonar surveys. The front was found to form dur...
