Abstract
This paper documents the seasonal opening/closure features of tidal inlets and river mouths in a wave-dominated, micro-tidal environment along the central coast of Vietnam and discusses their formation, temporal morphological changes under typical conditions that are dominant in the dry and the wet season respectively. The interpretations are based on aerial photography, historical maps, satellite images and field observations. In addition a conceptual model of seasonal opening/closure features of tidal inlets in a wave dominated; micro-tidal environment under the influence of episodic river discharges is introduced and examined by numerical modeling.
