On Fluid Dynamics of Freshwater and Seawater in Marine Systems

O dinamici miješanja slatke i morske vode u morskim sustavima

Interaction between freshwater and seawater can significantly influence marine life and create important productive and dynamic natural habitats, such as estuaries. The authors study such processes and for this purpose they develop a new mathematical model with the system of coupled nonlinear conservation equations that govern the interaction of the two incompressible fluids with different properties. The system is solved by using implicit operator splitting and mixed finite elements methods. Finally, the numerical scheme has been used to provide simulations of two real world scenarios.
