Navigation
Sustaining the recreational and economic viability of maritime regions depends upon maintaining navigability of shipping channels and coastlines. Coastal erosion and shoreline change are major concerns, threatening coastal communities, public infrastructure, tourism, and fishing enterprises. EEMS helps assess the impacts of changes to shoreline and bed morphology, allowing the best solutions to be determined.
Dredging Impacts
Dredging impact and dredge-plume assessment with open-source EFDC+ — sediment transport fully coupled to toxics.
Flow Patterns & Velocity
Coastal waters and estuaries, as well as rivers and dams, are environments with significant impact on the regional economic and recreation activities as well as bio-diversity.
Sedimentation
Sediment transport and deposition modeling for ports, navigation channels, and contaminated-sediment sites — with the VIMS and SEDZLJ sub-models.
Shoreline Erosion
Erosion of shorelines can be a significant problem in both open and confined waters.
