In order to address the problem of limited water renewal in restricted lagoons of moderate size having at least two tidal inlets, a method is proposed to enhance water exchange between the lagoon and the open sea. The method consists of altering either the amplitude or the phase of the tide in one of the inlets. It is shown in the paper that this will result in an alteration of the function of the lagoon, from a lagoon periodically exchanging water equal to a tidal prism within each tidal cycle with the adjacent water body, towards an effectively flow through system, substantially improving the flushing rate of the lagoon. The method is confirmed by running a series of numerical experiments simulating tidal hydrodynamics in the Papas lagoon. The question of how to alter the tidal amplitude is briefly touched upon, by numerically testing the performance of artificially macro-roughening an inlet and alternatively, designing an inlet to have a meandering shape. It was found that both modifications produce a diminished tidal amplitude, providing positive evidence for the applicability of the proposed method.

努力提高潮汐引起的沿海泻湖水质更新

为了解决在具有至少两个潮汐进口的中等大小的受限泻湖中水的更新受限的问题,提出了一种方法来增强泻湖与公海之间的水交换。该方法包括改变其中一个入口的潮汐的幅度或相位。从文件中可以看出,这将导致泻湖功能的改变,从一个泻湖周期性地与相邻水体交换与每个潮汐周期内的潮汐棱镜相等的水,朝着有效地流经系统的方向发展,从而大大改善了泻湖的功能。泻湖的冲洗率。通过运行一系列数值模拟帕帕斯泻湖中潮汐水动力的实验证实了该方法。简要谈到了如何改变潮汐幅度的问题,通过数值测试人工宏观粗化进气口的性能,或者将进气口设计为曲折形状。发现这两种修改产生的潮汐振幅减小,为所提出的方法的适用性提供了积极的证据。
