Abstract

Abstract

Flows in firths exhibit obvious 3-D structure due to the complex topography and runoffs.Three-D modeling should be performed in order to reproduce various processes existing in firths.In practice,it is quite suitable to choosing the POM model,which uses or thogonal curvilinear coordinates in the horizontal and σ coordinate in the vertical as the hydrodynamic part of the modeling system.Combined with a 3-D Lagrangian drifter tracking module and a water quality module,the POM model is utilized to study water exchange and pollutant transport in the Yulin Firth.
