An empirical formula of bottom friction coefficient with a dependence on the current speed for the tidal models

Tides are of great importance for ocean mixing and nearshore ocean engineering. Bottom friction is a major factor in tidal dissipation and is usually parameterized by the bottom friction coefficient (BFC). BFC is a critical parameter in numerical tidal models and is known to vary with time and space...
