Scanning notes: Disclaimer inserted for illegible graphs and text. Prepared under the support of the Office of Sea Grant National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration U. S. Department of Commerce through Coherent Area Project Grant GH-88 2-35150 Foreword: This report is intended as a documentation of the computer program and as a user's manual for the implementation of the mathematical model for the prediction of unsteady salinity intrusion in estuaries. The details of the model development and verification are contained in the following report: "A Mathematical Model for the Prediction of Unsteady Salinity Intrusion in Estuaries" by M. Llewellyn Thatcher and Donald R. F. Harleman, Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory for Water Resources and Hydrodynamics, Technical Report No. 144, February 1972 also published by M.I.T. Sea Grant Project Office as Report No. MITSG 72-7 (index No. 72-307-Ccb)]. The unsteady salinity intrusion model is one-dimensional, although varying degrees of stratification are accounted for in the assumed longitudinal dispersion relationship. This model is a component in two additional studies, one of which is concerned with the two-dimensional aspects of salinity intrusion (i.e. vertical salinity and velocity distributions in estuaries): "Mathematical Simulation of Tidal Time-Averages of Salinity and Velocity Profiles in Estuaries" by John S. Fisher, John D. Ditmars and Arthur T. Ippen, Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory for Water Resources and Hydrodynamics, Technical Report No. 151, July 1972 [also published by M.I.T. Sea Grant Project Office as Report No. MITSG 72-11 (index No. 72-311-Ccb)] The second study is concerned with the development of a model for predicting the transient longitudinal distribution of water quality parameters in estuaries: "Numerical Model for the Prediction of Transient Water Quality in Estuary Networks" by James E. Dailey and Donald R. F. Harleman, Ralph M. Parsons Laboratory for Water Resources and Hydrodynamics, Technical Report No. 158, October 1972 [also published by M.I.T. Sea Grant Project Office as Report No. MITSG 72-15 (index No. 72-315-Ccb)] This user's manual therefore assists in the implementation of the analytical and numerical models listed above. 2022-06-13T13:06:57Z 2022-06-13T13:06:57Z 1972-11 159 https://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/142978 2612850 246743 R (Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
