This textbook provides an in-depth overview of the hydrodynamics of
estuaries and semi-enclosed bodies of water. It begins by
describing the typical classification of estuaries, followed by a
presentation of the quantitative tools needed to study these
basins: conservation of mass, salt, heat, momentum, and the
thermodynamic equation of seawater. Further topics explore tides in
homogeneous basins, including shallow water tides and tidal
residual flows, wind-driven flows in homogeneous basins,
density-driven flows, as well as interactions among tides, winds
and density gradients. The book proposes a classification of
semi-enclosed basins that is based on dominant dynamics, comparing
forcing agents and restorative or balancing forces. Introduction to
Estuarine Hydrodynamics provides an introduction for advanced
students and researchers across a range of disciplines - Earth
science, environmental science, biology, chemistry, geology,
hydrology, physics - related to the study of estuarine systems.
