Abstract

This paper studies a large-scale reclamation project in the Oujiang River Estuary (ORE), which is a very complex macrotidal estuary with many islands located in Zhejiang Province, China. The large-scale reclamation engineering effects on hydrodynamics and salinity in the ORE are predicted and analyzed by the verified model. The simulated results indicate that the proposed layout of the reclamation is designed in accordance with the laws of flow in the sea area. Such a large-scale reclamation project will have some effects in the ORE but within acceptable limits. The wide range reclamation project describing here is very representative and it has much reference values to other similar projects in other country.
