Effect of Local Winds on Salinity Intrusion in the Columbia River Estuary

In the highly energetic Columbia River estuary, river discharge and tides are known as dominant factors controlling circulation. In this study, the 3D hydrodynamic unstructured-grid model SELFE is used to investigate the influence of the local wind on salinity intrusion. Numerical simulations are ca...
