ABSTRACT
A one dimensional mathematical model of water flow and water quality in tidal river networks is presented. The equations are numerically solved using a two-stage finite differencing scheme for simulating the time-dependent variations of the hydrodynamic and solute transport processes. The model was applied to an urban river network in Fuzhou City, China in order to predict flooding and water quality. The results were used for environmental planning and management of water resources in the city area.
