DOWNLOAD EBOOKA previously calibrated numerical three-dimensional hydrodynamic model for Los Angeles-Long Beach Harbors, California, was applied to study the combined effects of tide and wind on circulation. The model was calibrated and verified successfully with field data for a summer wind condition. In this report the calibration is compared to a no-wind condition to understand the effects of typical wind conditions on circulation. Also, wind conditions for approaching (winds from the southeast) and passing (winds from the north) frontal systems, typical of fall-winter weather patterns, were simulated. Results indicated the effects of wind can be significant. Harbors, Long Beach Harbor, Wind-driven circulation. Hydrodynamics, Numerical models, Los Angeles Harbor, Tidal circulation.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA study to determine the effect of the proposed 2020 Master Plan on tidal circulation in Los Angeles and Long Beach Harbors was conducted using a numerical model with a two-dimensional depth-averaged formulation of the hydrodynamic equations. The model, which had been verified in a previous study, used an implicit finite-difference scheme to numerically solve the equations. To observe the dispersion of conservative substances, the model also incorporated the two-dimensional conservative constituent transport equations. The 2020 Master Plan consists of placing 2600 acres of landfill at various locations throughout the harbors. Tidal circulation was studied for 70-hr sequences of spring, mean, and neap tides for each of three harbor configurations: (1) existing configuration (1983), (2) landfills placed on existing bathymetry, and (3) landfills placed with increased channel depths. The 2020 Master Plan produced no changes in tidal elevation or phase throughout the harbors.
