Resumen

A hydrodynamical numerical model is used to predict the wind-induced circulation in Todos Santos Bay for wind conditions representative of summer, winter and the aperiodic westerly "Santana" winds. Maximum velocities along the coast and return flows are apparently induced by topographic effects. Some effects of this circulation are discussed in relation to pollution problems.

Sediment transport over intertidal flats is driven by a combination of waves, tides, and wind-driven flow. In this study we aimed at identifying and quantifying the interactions between these processes. A five week long dataset consisting of flow velocit... ver más

Csanady?s (1973) model, used to explain the development of strong, wind-induced nearshore currents in long lakes, has been extended to explain the same phenomenon in flow-through semi-enclosed gulfs. As in the original theory, it is predicted that the de... ver más
