SHYFEM model set-up in the Adriatic Sea
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The numerical computation is performed on a spatial domain that represents
the whole Adriatic Sea by means of the unstructured grid. The numerical
domain comprises all Po River branches starting downstream the Po di Goro
diversion (40 km upstream) with 9 river mouths. To adequately resolve the
river-sea continuum, the unstructured grid also includes the lower part
of the other major rivers flowing into the Adriatic Sea. The use of
elements of variable sizes, typical of finite element methods, is fully
exploited, in order to suit the complicated geometry of the basin, the
rapidly varying topographic features. The numerical grid of the Adriatic
Sea consists in approximately 110,000 triangular elements with a
resolution that varies from 7 km in the open-sea to few hundred meters
