3D Coastal Modelling

Australian Water School via YouTube

Overview

Explore 3D modelling approaches for coastal environments in this 54-minute webinar on 3D Coastal Modelling. Learn why 3D modelling is necessary, understand ocean circulation, and review 2D concepts before delving into 3D model setup. Discover result visualization techniques and examine real-world modelling challenges. Gain insights into extending nearshore coastal hydrodynamic models from 2D to 3D, addressing new problems and considerations along the way. Understand the impact of regional ocean currents, synoptic scale meteorology, water temperature, ocean salinity, freshwater inflows, and buoyancy on circulation and stratification. Learn about timeframes, model calibration, geometry definition, and result interpretation. Join Mitchell Smith from TUFLOW FV as he guides you through this comprehensive exploration of 3D coastal modelling techniques.
