Model Description
The SERM model consists of two parts. A simple circulation
model has been developed which predicts physical
exchanges in different estuary types, based on specification
of a coarse box geometry, and forcing data such as river
flow and tidal amplitude. A rather complex biogeochemical / ecological
model, developed through previous coastal studies, and extended
and improved for the Audit, is implemented on the same
coarse box model geometry, and uses the exchanges
predicted by the hydrodynamic model. For further
