Assessing the Effectiveness of the IJmuiden Salt Screen Design for Nonuniform Selective Withdrawal by Physical and Numerical Modeling

Salt water intrusion through the New Sea Lock of IJmuiden, Netherlands requires mitigation to ensure availability of enough fresh water further inland. For this purpose, a salt screen has been proposed for selective withdrawal of salt water from the Noordzeekanaal in the vicinity of the lock complex. Formulas to assess the withdrawal rate of...
