Suspended Sediment Test in an Estuary
This test case provides a fundamental check of the ability of a model to represent 1) mixing processes typical of estuarine conditions, 2) resuspension, advection, and deposition for suspended-sediment transport, 3) temporal dynamics of upper bed layer, and 4) interaction of suspended-sediment and the bed.

Model Parameters
The following model parameters were used for the Suspended Sediment Test in an Estuary.
Model Parameter | Variable | Value |
---|---|---|
length, width, depth | Xsize, Esize, depth | 10000 m, 100 m, 10 m |
bottom roughness | Zob | 0.005 m |
settle velocity | ws | 1.0 mm s-1 |
critical stresses | tce | 0.05 N m-2 |
porosity | ? | 0.90 |
Bed thickness | bed_thick | 1 mm |
