Abstract
Hydrodynamics and morphodynamics of a seasonally forced tidal inlet system are investigated using numerical models. The ocean forcing including tidal and wave actions and sediment transport is simulated using Delft3D model. Fluvial processes in Delft3D are taken into account as results from SOBEK RURAL model. Analysis of the numerical simulation results allows enhancing insight the mechanisms behind the behaviours of the tidal inlet system in a tropical monsoon area, under the influences of river flow and seasonal wave actions.
