Description:
Taizhou Bay, which locates in the southern coast of China, is frequently influenced by human activities, leading coastline changes frequently in coastline changes visible from space. Coastline deformation in this area will obviously affect the character of extreme high tide level variations in Jiaojiang River and Estuary especially during flood and typhoon periods. Statistic data showed that 54.5% of the extreme high tide levels of Jiaojiang River were caused by typhoon and 27.3% by flood in the past twenty-two years. So, a two-dimensional (2-D) hydrodynamic numerical model including Jiaojiang River and East China Sea was established based on the Mike21 FM model. The model was calibrated with field data and then was employed to predict the extreme flood and storm high tide level changes under three different assumption plans of coastline deformation. 100-year return discharge upstream with 2-year return tide level downstream conditions were set in the model to simulate extreme f...
