Tidal modulated flow and sediment flux through Wax Lake Delta distributary channels: Implications for delta development
In this study, a Delft3D model of the Wax Lake Delta was developed to simulate flow and sediment flux through delta distributary channels. The model was calibrated for tidal constituents as well as velocity and sediment concentration across channel transects. The calibrated model was then used to si...
