Columbia Estuary Data Development Program - Hydrodynamic Modeling of the Columbia River Estuary

The research reported in the following two volumes was funded primarily by CREDDP in two parts. The first part of the study employed the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Waterways Experiment Station Implicit Flooding Model (WIFM). Thanks are due to Lee Butler of WES for supplying the original code for WIFM. The second part of the study, which was performed after CREDDP restarted in 1982, consisted of the modification of a depth-dependent channel model and its application to the estuary. This second study would not have been carried as far as it has without additional support from the Portland District Corps of Engineers in the form of a contract to Science Applications, Inc. (Contract Number DACW57-83-M-1703). Thanks are due to Dave Askren and Steve Chesser of the Portland District for their interest and support. Throughout the study, data was supplied to this work unit from the Currents work unit investigators. David Jay is especially thanked for providing carefully edited data files in a uniform format from a number of different sources. Thanks are also due to the staff members of Science Applications, Inc., Raleigh, N. C. for their help in many aspects of this program.
