Two-Dimensional Model

Term · Environment · MLC-T-ENV-028906

A mathematical model defined along two spatial coordinates where the water quality constituents are considered averaged over the third remaining spatial coordinate. Examples of 2-D models include descriptions of the variability of water quality properties along: (a) the length and width of a river that incorporates vertical averaging of depth, or (b) length and depth of a river that incorporates lateral averaging across the width of the waterbody.
