Description
Horizontal chaotic dispersion plays an important role in the distribution and fate of pollutants in coastal waters. Particle dispersion within coastal areas is governed by the combination of local weather events and the interaction of the flow field with local morphological structures, at small and large time scales. The present study investigates the horizontal dispersion and barriers to material transport in a tidal dominated estuary (Moreton Bay) using a combination of a hydrodynamic model and the identification of Lagrangian Coherent Structures (LCS) which acts as transport barriers. In this study, Finite-Time Lyapunov Exponent (FTLE) method has been applied to investigate how the material gets close to the LCS and also to identify the characteristics of the LCS for spring and neap tides.
Impact and interest:
Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
Full-text downloads:
Full-text downloads displays the total number of times this work’s files (e.g., a PDF) have been downloaded from QUT ePrints as well as the number of downloads in the previous 365 days. The count includes downloads for all files if a work has more than one.
