Abstract:Xiangshan Bay characterized by typical bedrock and silt is a long and narrow coast waters. It is both a traditional shellfish and algae breeding base and a frequent human activity area, where the environmental pollution is increasingly severe. Simulating pollutant transport process and forecasting water quality changes could provide a strong support for comprehensive improvement of water quality. A FVCOM-based tidal current hydrodynamic model is built. It is validated that this model can successfully simulate the bay's hydrodynamic conditions. Based on a pollutant transport model with the hydrodynamic conditions, the transport process of the pollutant from major land-based outlets in the bay is simulated and discussed, and the pollutant transport regularity is summarized.
