A Coupled Model of the 1D River Network and 3D Estuary Based on Hydrodynamics and Suspended Sediment Simulation
Figure 3
The coupled model uses the field measurements from July 18, 1998, to July 19, 1998 (wet season), at eighteen stations as calibration. The model skill score is employed to evaluate quantitatively the model performance of water levels (a), discharges (b), and suspended sediment concentration (c) against the measured time series. The circles with the different colors represent the different performances of the model. The high scores of the water levels and the discharges show the good performance of the model, which include the contribution of the calibration of the suspended sediment concentration.
