LAKE2D Hydrodynamics
Problem setting from Hillsborough Water
Atlas: Lake Thonotasassa (aka Lake T)
Use Lake2d model
Hydrodynamics
Salinity and dye tracer
Particle tracking
Hands-on problem

Lake Thonotasassa, Florida
Inflow
Outflow
Steps Needed for Hydrodynamic Model
Setup
2D grid is constructed from lake2d shoreline
and bathymetry data
Initial condition assigned for water surface
elevation
Activate salinity; set initial condition
Define inflow and outflow boundary locations
Define start & end date/time for model run
Assign boundary conditions for flow & salinity
Initial Conditions for Salinity
Date & Time In EFDC
Calendar Date/Time transformed to Julian Day
Julian Day is counted relative to a reference
year (Base Date) set by user
Time series must be Julian Day


Time Series Files use Julian Day

DateBase=1/1/1990
