Abstract

This paper describes briefly the development of a two-dimensional depth integrated numerical model 2DTIDFLO based on the numerical scheme of Stelling (1984) for the solution of shallow water wave equations. The application of the numerical model to regional waters of Singapore is demonstrated for the case of Singapore Straits by comparing the results of numerical simulation with the field measurements of tidal water levels and currents. As a further enhancement of the regional model a finer grid nested model is established for the central region of Singapore waters for a more detailed study of the nearfield hydrodynamics. Some results of simulation using the nested modelling approach are presented.
