Dataset

Description

The dataset contains the input files of twenty (20) simulations using Delft3D Flexible Mesh (DFM). The simulations represent wetlands with different morphologies:

00. flat/reference

01. de-embanked

02. willow plantation (high)

03. willow plantation (low)

04. marsh

This wetland morphologies have been exposed to four types of boundary conditions:

D. representative drought conditions: Mean water level of 0 m; tidal range of 1.50 m; background salinity of 0 psu; event duration of 30 days; change in water level during event of -0.10 m; change in salinity during event of +6 psu.

DE. representative drought conditions (excl. water level change): Same as [drought] except no change in water level during event.

F. representative flood conditions: Mean water level of 0 m; tidal range of 1.50 m; background salinity of 0 psu; event duration of one (1) day; change in water level during event of +1.41 m; change in salinity during event of +25 psu.

FE. representative flood conditions (excl. water level change): Same as [flood] except no change in water level during event.

Model simulations are labelled as <boundary-condition><wetland-morphology>, e.g., "D00" refers to representative drought conditions with the flat/reference wetland morphology.
