Here in this study, we compared the newly developed algorithm HSIMT (advection scheme with High-order Spatial Interpolation at the Middle Temporal level) with the well-known scheme MPDATA (Multidimensional Positive-Definite Advective Transport Algorithm), in the 1-dimensional idealized simulation and the 3-dimensional realistic river plume simulations. The river plume simulation was done with a mainstream ocean model ROMS (Regional Ocean Modeling System). The results showed that in the 1-dimensional test both HSIMT and MPDATA can converge to the analytical results, but HSIMT converges much faster and does not produce overshooting around the sharp front. Accuracy of HSIMT is also free from the choice of timestep, unlike MPDATA. In the ROMS simulation of a surface-trapped river plume, HSIMT also showed great advantages. Results simulated by MPDATA is highly relied on the model resolution, but when the resolution is high enough the results approached to that simulated by HSIMT. The results of this study could assist the further understanding on capacity of advection schemes and further promote the developments of ocean models.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100098,"journal":{"name":"Anthropocene Coasts","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71909643","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ‘CoastRes’ project, a component of the UK Climate Resilience Programme, examined how an operational interpretation of resilience might be applied to the coast, building on existing approaches to shoreline management in the UK. The development of the methodology and resulting Coastal Resilience Model has been reported elsewhere. For this communication, we provide a brief summary of the management framework, the Coastal Resilience Model (CRM) and the preparation of the datasets, so that the limitations of the data available at a national scale are clear. We then illustrate how the Coastal Resilience Model has been implemented as the web-based CRM Portal. The purpose of the portal is to allow users to explore (i) the implications of future change on local and national resilience; and (ii) their own view of the relative importance of the Performance Measures that make up the Coastal Resilience Index. By exploring the influence of these weightings it is hoped that Stakeholders can develop a shared understanding of what is important for coastal communities.

The major contributors to the different patterns of sediment dynamics between the two tidal flats were offshore tidal current field and human interference. Offshore tidal force provide the basic setup of tidal current patterns on tidal flats, which is then modified by local morphology. Seawalls parallel to coast reduce tidal flat width, forcing tidal energy to dissipate within a shorter distance and thus influencing tidal flat morphology. Seawalls vertical to coast and major tidal current significantly reduce tidal current speed, which favors sediment deposition on tidal flats. Two seawalls built on both sides of the observational tidal flat profile caused much reduced current speed at Dafeng tidal flat, comparing to the offshore station. Being exposed to offshore radial tidal currents, hydrodynamics at Jianggang was much stronger than that at Dafeng. Residual currents at both areas showed net landward transport at the lower flat and net seaward transport at the upper flat, in favor to sediment accumulation at the middle flat. Sediment flux over tidal cycles showed net landward sediment transport at Dafeng, and net seaward transport at Jianggang, consistent with the convex-up accretion-dominated profile observed at Dafenge, and concave-up erosion-dominated profile observed at Jianggang. The instantaneons sediment flux changed significantly due to variations in velocity and sediment concentrations, but these terms counteracted with each other within tidal cycles, leading to the dominant role of Eulerian flux in determining net sediment flux over tidal cycles.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100098,"journal":{"name":"Anthropocene Coasts","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"71910778","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
