The Coastal & Estuarine Physics group investigates the processes that affect
circulation on continental shelves and in estuaries. Numerical simulations
of these processes are conducted in cooperation with other institutions.
Circulation and mixing processes covered under these topics are related to
(1) buoyancy forces provided primarily by freshwater discharge, (2) tidal
energy dissipation, and (3) wind stress. Recent examples of projects can be
viewed by clicking one of the topics highlighted below.
