Model-Derived Hydrodynamics of Inlets in South Puget Sound

Publication: Estuarine and Coastal Modeling (2009)

Abstract

A recent model application has been developed by the Washington State Dept. of Ecology that simulates water circulation in South Puget Sound (SPS) using the Generalized Environmental Modeling System for Surface waters (GEMSS) with an open northern boundary near Edmonds, WA. Post-calibration root mean square errors (RMSEs) are <5% of Ehe tidal range in all but Oakland Bay where the error was 10% of the tidal range. The model simulates salinity with a RMSE of 0.6 psu near the surface and 0.5 psu near the seafloor compared with field observations at 22 key stations.
