A Decision Support System for Optimising Engineering and Operational Design of Nearshore Mining Operations Based on Numerical Simulations of Nearshore Waves, Currents and Water Levels

Publication: Estuarine and Coastal Modeling (2003)

Abstract

This paper describes the DSS and associated numerical modelling effort used to assess a proposed nearshore mining operation on the west coast of southern Africa. The DSS is based on both simulated and measured time series of environmental conditions of a one year duration that are considered to be representative of the long-term environmental conditions at the location(s) of the proposed nearshore mining operations.
