Improving the parameterisation of horizontal density gradient in one-dimensional water column models for estuarine circulation

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Ocean Sci. et al. from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the article: Improving the parameterisation of horizontal density gradient in one-dimensional water column models for estuarine circulation, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
• what: Using simple mathematical developments, a new expression of the horizontal density gradient was developed in order to avoid the phenomenon known as "runaway stratification".
• how: This paper shows that simple analytical developments can lead to a new version of the model which keeps stratification under control.

SUMMARY

Linear prescriptive models were first used (Simpson et_al, 1991 . . .
