Boundary conditions are discussed and model results are compared with measured data. The role of the parameters: velocity diffusivity, tracer diffusion coefficient and numerical diffusion and their effect on the salinity field are shown. Next to the salinity data, tracer data from the model will be used to determine dispersion coefficients for a 1D ecological box model of our project partner, the University of Antwerp.
