An application of the method of characteristics to tidal computations in estuaries

The nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equations applicable to long wave propagation in two spatial dimensions are derived, under the assumptions of hydrostatic pressure distribution and quadratic bed friction. The relevance of linearised versions of these equations to various tidal configura...
