Application of 2d finite difference model for assessing the effects of tide and flood in CanGio magrove forest

Abstract

    In order to comprehend how tide acts to Cangio bay, this study have developed a 2-D finite difference model to assess changes of water flow in Cangio bay under significant influence of tide, and the wet-and-dry scheme-based method is also designed and configured into proposed model to indicate clearly where waterlogged soils under fluctuation of tide. In this study, a 2D-finite different wet-and-dry scheme-based model has been completely developed and applied for simulating changing of water flows in river and shallow Sea. The results of model also pointed out the changing of inundated areas under the tidal regime.
