Lagrangian structure of flows in the Chesapeake Bay: challenges and perspectives on the analysis of estuarine flows
In this work we discuss applications of Lagrangian techniques to study transport properties of flows generated by shallow water models of estuarine flows. We focus on the flow in the Chesapeake Bay generated by Quoddy (see Lynch and Werner, 1991), a finite-element (shallow water) model adopted to th...
