iFlow�Inwerking en ontwikkeling SKN 21: Incorporation of intertidal zones in iFlow
Abstract In this report, we present the effect of incorporating tidal zones in the idealized, width�based model iFlow. It appears that incorporating intertidal zones affects the hydrodynamics (i.e. water levels and flow velocities) via four different mechanisms. Each mechanism has been implemented in the two existing solvers of iFlow, the semi�analytical solver and the numerical solver. An additional solver, the full analytical solver, was created and is applicable to estuary models with a horizontal bottom and an exponentially converging width. It was found that the differences in results between these solvers where overall converging quadratically with increasing grid resolution, emphasizing correct implementation. However, one of the terms, does only converge linearly for a horizontal bottom. In the case of a more realistic bottom, quadratic convergence is still obtained for two of the four terms, while a third term only converges linearly and the fourth term does not converge with increasing grid resolution at all. Although these convergence discrepancies require some additional attention, the error between the terms stays less than 1% giving confidence into the implementation. Overall, the incorporation of intertidal zones was found to have a significant effect on the prediction of the M4 tide. The quantification of this effect has not been realized, mainly because the unrealistic bathymetry used did not allow for a significant analysis. The investigation of the quantitative effect of intertidal zones on the Scheldt is left for a follow up study.

1 Introduction Processed based, exploratory models such as iFlow (Dijkstra et al., 2017) have been used with increasing fre‐ quency over the last years, both in scientific research (Brouwer et al., 2018; Dijkstra et al., 2019a,b) or in studies following requests from customers (Brouwer et al., 2017). The benefits of these models with respect to clas‐ sical three‐dimensional models (such as Telemac), is (i) their speed and (ii) the possibility to decompose output variables (e.g. water‐level or flow velocity) into individual components related to specific physical mechanisms. A disadvantage of these models is that they are highly idealized or simplified in terms of both geometry and governing equations. This implies that some crucial mechanisms influencing the hydrodynamics or sediment transport might be overlooked. Since iFlow is a width‐averaged model, the width of an estuary, as defined in the model, might vary over its length, but is always taken constant in time. Nevertheless, basic studies of bathymetry in the Scheldt show that the width of the Scheldt can vary with up to 40% on an intertidal time‐ scale at some location (see Fig. 1). This phenomenon is caused by large areas called intertidal zones, that are covered by water at high tide but fall dry during low‐tide. This feature implies that some major properties of Figure 1 – Evolution of the relative variation in width over the length of the estuary.
intertidal zones are not yet included in iFlow. An example of such a property is the additional volume offered by intertidal zones for storage of water, which has a direct impact on the water‐level. A possibility to circum‐ vent this shortcoming within the iFlow framework, is to modify its governing equations to allow the width of the estuary to vary with the water‐level. In the remaining part of the report, we first discuss the adaptation of the governing equations. Subsequently, we evaluate our approach via the investigation of the parameter space for a simplified geometry of an estuary and compare analytical solutions to the iFlow results. Finally, the model with intertidal zone effects is applied to a realistic geometry of the Scheldt river.

2 Reformulation of the equations including the effects of intertidal zones 2.1
Governing equations
According to Dijkstra et al., 2017, the governing equations in iFlow consist of a widthâ€?averaged Shallowâ€?water equation for the conservation of momentum and two continuity equations. However, in the present study the vertical velocity does not play a role of interest. As a result, we limit ourselves to a widthâ€?averaged and depthâ€? integrated equation for the conservation of mass governing the surface elevation. The equations of interest are đ?‘…+đ?œ

in which đ?‘˘ is the horizontal velocity variable, đ?œ the surface elevation, đ?‘Ľ is the along estuary coordinate, đ?‘§ the vertical coordinate and đ?‘Ą time. The symbol represents đ?‘” the acceleration of gravity, đ?‘… the mean level of the river surface, đ?œŒref the reference density, đ?œŒ the density of the fluid, đ?œˆđ?‘‡ the eddyâ€?viscosity, đ??ť the depth and đ??ľ the width. It was chosen to highlight the width with a different color such that its role within the governing equations is more visible. The depth is also displayed in a different color because it is demonstrated in the Sec. 2.3 that width and depth are intrinsically linked via the widthâ€?averaging process. A set of boundary conditions is associated to the governing equations. These boundary conditions comprise a partial slip condition at the bed (i.e. đ?‘§ = −đ??ť), a noâ€?stress condition at the surface (i.e. đ?‘§ = đ?‘… + đ?œ ), a timeâ€? dependent tidal forcing at the seaward boundary (i.e. đ?‘Ľ = 0) and an imposed river discharge at the landward boundary (i.e. đ?‘Ľ = đ??ż). The equations for these boundary conditions are đ?œ•đ?‘˘ = đ?‘ đ?‘“ đ?‘˘ đ?œ•đ?‘§ đ?œ•đ?‘˘ đ?œˆđ?‘‡ =0 đ?œ•đ?‘§ đ?œ = đ??´M2 cos(đ?œŽđ?‘Ą) + đ??´M4 cos(2đ?œŽđ?‘Ą + đ?œ‘) đ?œˆđ?‘‡

2.2
Perturbation method and extension to the width and depth variables
The iFlow philosophy for solving the governing equations is based on the perturbation technique. The first assumption upon which this technique is based is that some of the variables are decomposable into a series of terms. In these series, each term is of order đ?œ€ = đ?œ /đ??ť with respect to the previous term and đ?œ€ ≪ 1. For example, a variable đ?œ‚ can be written as đ?œ‚ = đ?œ‚ 0 + đ?œ‚1 + đ?œ‚2 + ⋯ with đ?œ‚1 /đ?œ‚0 = đ?‘‚(đ?œ€), đ?œ‚2 /đ?œ‚1 = đ?‘‚(đ?œ€), etc. Up to now, this decomposition technique has been applied to the unknown variables (i.e. đ?‘˘, đ?‘¤ and đ?œ ), as well as to some of the physical mechanisms (tidal elevation at the seaward boundary, river flux at the landward boundary), but not to the width đ??ľ or to the depth đ??ť. From now on, also these variables are split following đ??ľ = đ??ľ0 + đ??ľ1 + ⋯ , đ??ť = đ??ť0 + đ??ť1 + ⋯ . The second assumption of the perturbation technique is based on a harmonic decomposition. The harmonic decomposition implies that each variable evolves periodically in time, according to a specific frequency that is characteristic of the variable’s order. At leading order, the variables will evolve according to the frequency of the M2 tide, while at first order, the variables will evolve according to the frequency of the M4 tide, but will also have a timeâ€?independent component referred to as the ’M0 frequency’. As a result of this assumption, it is very useful to define a complex function, denoted by â‹…,Ě‚ verifying ∗ đ?œ‚02 Ě‚ (đ?‘Ľ, đ?‘§) iđ?œŽđ?‘Ą đ?œ‚02 Ě‚ (đ?‘Ľ, đ?‘§) −iđ?œŽđ?‘Ą đ?‘’ + đ?‘’ 2 2 âˆ—Ě‚ (đ?‘Ľ, đ?‘§) đ?œ‚ Ě‚ (đ?‘Ľ, đ?‘§) 2iđ?œŽđ?‘Ą đ?œ‚14 đ?œ‚1 (đ?‘Ľ, đ?‘§, đ?‘Ą) = 14 + đ?‘’ đ?‘’−2iđ?œŽđ?‘Ą +đ?œ‚10 â?&#x;â?&#x;â?&#x;â?&#x;â?&#x;â?&#x;â?&#x;â?&#x;â?&#x;â?&#x;â?&#x;â?&#x;â?&#x; 2 2
đ?œ‚0 (đ?‘Ľ, đ?‘§, đ?‘Ą) =

where đ?œ‚ designates either đ?‘˘, đ?‘¤ or đ?œ . The first order solution consist of a signal evolving as 2đ?œŽđ?‘Ą, which has Ě‚ |, and a timeâ€?independent signal, of amplitude đ?œ‚10 . In these notations, the first a complex amplitude of |đ?œ‚14 subscript (hereafter also denoted đ?‘?) refers to the order and the second subscript (hereafter also denoted đ?‘˜) refers to the tidal component. The superscript ∗ denotes the complex conjugated associated to đ?œ‚.Ě‚ By defining đ?œ‚đ?‘?đ?‘˜ Ě‚ = âˆŁđ?œ‚đ?‘?đ?‘˜ Ě‚ âˆŁ đ?‘’đ?‘–đ?œ‘ , it is then easy to show that đ?œ‚0 = |đ?œ‚02 Ě‚ (đ?‘Ľ, đ?‘§)| cos (đ?œŽđ?‘Ą + đ?œ‘(đ?‘Ľ, đ?‘§)) ,
(5)
đ?œ‚14 = |đ?œ‚14 Ě‚ (đ?‘Ľ, đ?‘§)| cos (2đ?œŽđ?‘Ą + đ?œ‘(đ?‘Ľ, đ?‘§)) ,
(6)
in other words, the amplitudes of đ?œ‚đ?‘?đ?‘˜ and đ?œ‚đ?‘?đ?‘˜ Ě‚ are equal. This formulation has implications for the time derivâ€? atives đ?œ• đ?‘“đ?‘›Ě‚ = đ?‘›iđ?œŽđ?‘“đ?‘›Ě‚ . đ?œ•đ?‘Ą This second assumption directly implies that the parameterization of đ??ľ and đ??ť has be chosen such that the velocity and flow patterns they generate are consistent with Eqs (3) and (4). This condition will be further detailed in Sec. 2.3.

2.3
Parameterization of depth and width variations
As mentioned previously, the parameterization of depth and width variation cannot be taken arbitrarily. In order to be consistent with the ordering and harmonic decomposition of the variables, it is required that đ??ľ0 and đ??ť0 are constant, while đ??ľ1 and đ??ť1 vary linearly with the water level đ?œ 02 , the latter evolving with a đ?œŽâ€? frequency. A parameterization satisfying these conditions for đ??ľ is đ??ľ = đ??ľ0 +
Δđ??ľ đ?œ +⋯, 2đ??´M2 02 â?&#x;
(11)
đ??ľ1
where Δđ??ľ is the difference in width of the estuary between high and low water. Since iFlow is a widthâ€?averaged model, conservation of the crossâ€?section implies that changes in the estuary width also involve changes in the estuary depth. This implication is taken account for by defining variation of the crossâ€?section đ?’œ with respect to the water depth as đ?œ
đ?’œ = âˆŤ đ??ľ(đ?œ ′ )đ?‘‘đ?œ ′ .
(12)
−∞
Simultaneously, by definition đ?’œ = đ??ľ (đ?œ ) (đ??ť + đ?œ ) .
(13)
Differentiation Eqs (12) and (13) against đ?œ , and equating the result gives đ??ľ(đ?œ ) =
đ?œ•đ??ľ đ?œ•đ??ť (đ??ť + đ?œ ) + đ??ľ + đ??ľ (đ?œ ) . đ?œ•đ?œ đ?œ•đ?œ
(14)
Finally, by noticing that đ??ť ≍ đ?œ , a first order approximation gives đ?œ•đ??ť đ??ť đ?œ•đ??ľ =− . đ?œ•đ?œ đ??ľ đ?œ•đ?œ
(15)
Using Eq. (11) into Eq. (15) gives an ordering of đ??ť: đ??ť Δđ??ľ đ??ť (đ?œ ) = đ??ť0 − 0 đ?œ 02 2đ??´â?&#x; M2 â?&#x;â?&#x;đ??ľ â?&#x;0â?&#x; â?&#x;â?&#x;

Analytical formulation, general case
The new terms related to width (and depth) variations only appear at first order. Accordingly, the resolution will focus on the equations for the first order variables. Equations (9aâ€?9b) can be reâ€?written introducing new symbols for the forcing terms in order to highlight them. For simplicity, the horizontal density gradient and the eddy viscosity are assumed to be constant over the vertical and the river elevation is neglected (đ?‘… = 0). These assumptions give đ?œ•đ?‘˘1 đ?œ• 2 đ?‘˘1 đ?œ•đ?œ đ?œ•đ?œŒ − đ?œˆđ?‘‡ = − đ?‘” 1 − đ?œ‰(đ?‘Ľ, đ?‘§, đ?‘Ą) + đ?‘” â&#x;¨ â&#x;Š đ?‘§, đ?œ•đ?‘Ą đ?œ•đ?‘§ 2 đ?œ•đ?‘Ľ đ?œ•đ?‘Ľ

Analytical formulation, steady component
Since the equations governing the steady state variables are linear, the solution consists of the sum of the solutions to the individual forcing terms. As a result, the forcing terms that are not related to width or depth variations will not be considered here. The equations governing the steady state component of the variables are obtained by replacing the different complex quantities by the formulation of Eqs (3), (4), which gives

Individual forcing terms
In the case of a horizontal bottom and an exponentially converging width, it is possible to have a fully analytical expression of the forcing terms. Since the forcing terms (between brackets, [â‹…]) depend on the leading order variables đ?‘˘0 and/or đ?œ 02 , an analytical expression of these quantities is required. Under the assumptions stated in the beginning of this section, the equations governing the leading order variables, Eqs (7aâ€?7b), admit fully analytical solutions.

4 Simulation results The new, width or depth dependent, forcing terms have been implemented in iFlows semi�analytical and nu� merical modules. In this report, we only focus on the resulting additional water elevation at M4 frequency. These elevations are more difficult to implement as compared to the M0 water elevations, and are believed to be important contributors to the M4 tidal signal in the Scheldt. The depth and width dependent water el� evations at M0 frequency, the additional residual velocities and the additional M4 tidal velocities are analyzed in a follow up project. In the semi�analytical solver, the second order equation for the surface�elevation (i.e. Eq. (46) is integrated numerically while the solution for the velocity is still given by Eq (44). In the numer� ical solver both the velocity and the surface elevation are computed numerically. Additionally to these two solvers, a fully analytical solver was created for estuary models with a horizontal bottom and an exponentially converging width.
4.1
Validation
We choose to take advantage of these three solvers, to verify the implementations of the forcing terms re� lated to width and depth variations, Eqs (47b�47e). The configuration used for the validation was one with a horizontal bottom and an exponential converging width. The parameter values are largely inspired by the parameter values for the Scheldt by Wei et al., 2016 and given in Table 1. The aim is to validate the implement� Table 1 – Parameter values for an idealized Scheldt model (Wei et al., 2016).

ation of the width and depth dependent terms contributing to the first order surface elevation. Accordingly, the leading order surface elevation and velocity are computed with the same semiâ€?analytical solver, regardless if the first order solver is numerical, semiâ€?analytical or fully analytical. In this way, any possible discrepancies between the solutions at leading order is not influencing the solutions at first order. The relative performances of the semiâ€?analytical, analytical and numerical solvers are showed in Figs 2, 3 and 4. Quadratic convergence was checked by refining the grid 10 times in the horizontal and vertical directions. The error between two solvers, defined as âˆŁ

is reduced by two orders of magnitude for đ?œ depth , đ?œ width and đ?œ surf , when the grid is refined by one order of magnitude. The relative error between the đ?œ dips values computed by different solvers only reduces by one order of magnitude for a reason yet unknown. The relative behavior of the solvers is similar when the phase is analyzed. As illustration, the phases computed with the fully analytical method and the numerical method are displayed in Fig. 5. The phases of đ?œ depth , đ?œ width and đ?œ surf converge quadratically while the phase of đ?œ dips converges linearly. These results give confidence in the correct implementation of the forcing terms in iFlow, even if the nonâ€?quadratic convergence for đ?œ dips needs to be clarified.

Effect of the incorporation of intertidal zones on the total M4 surface elevation (horizontal bottom)
In the previous section, it is shown that the implementation of the forcing due to intertidal width and depth variations leads to converging results for all the width and depth dependent terms. As a result, we can now analyze with confidence the relative effect of depth and width dependent surface elevations with respect to the total M4 surface elevation. However, the first order forcing terms depend on the velocity and surface elevation at leading order. Additionally, particularly the bathymetry of the Scheldt is highly idealized in the current model and this property can significantly influence the leading order results. As a result, we will first study the surface elevation and bottom velocity at leading order, in the Wei et al., 2016 configuration and in the Brouwer et al., 2017 configuration (more details in Table 2). Table 2 – Parameter values for a different idealized Scheldt model Brouwer et al., 2017. Note that these parameters also include a phase shift of �1.3∘ between the external M4 and the external M2 tides.

The leading order surface elevation and the leading order bottom velocity are displayed in Figs 6 and 7. The expected evolution of the M2 surface elevation, i.e. a steady increase of the M2 amplitude until km 120 followed by a drop of the amplitude towards the weir (see measurement data in Brouwer et al., 2017), is not reproduced by neither of the two models. Particularly, towards the end of the estuary, the amplitude of the M2 is about 3m with respect to a depth of 10m for the Wei et al., 2016 parameter settings. The M2 surface elevation obtained using the Brouwer et al., 2017 parameter settings is better at the upstream side of the estuary, with an elevation of about 1.75m. However, it also lacks the maximum around km 120. The amplitude of the bottom velocity predicted by Brouwer et al., 2017 are much smaller than the one produced by Wei et al., 2016, which is explained by the large friction coefficient of the latter with respect to the former. Both the phase of the surface elevation and the phase of the velocity seem to be of inverse sign with respect to the measured data. Figure 6 – Leading order solutions for the water level and the bottom velocity for the Wei et al., 2016 configuration.
The leading order results show already quite some discrepancies with respect to the measurements. This feature implies that the first order results will probably show the same, if not a larger, difference with the measurements. However, we can still estimate the relative impact intertidal zones could have on the tidal signal. In this regard, it is for example particularly interesting to investigate the đ??šdips and the đ??šdepth term, since

they are strongly dependent on the bottom velocity. Figure 8 – First order surface elevation decomposed into separate width�depth contributions (Wei et al., 2016) (only full analytical results).
The different width and depth dependent M4 surface elevation components are displayed in Fig. 8 for the Wei et al., 2016 configuration, in Fig. 9 for the Brouwer et al., 2017 configuration. Every figure also contains the total M4 signal, with and without intertidal terms. As expected, the đ?œ depth term is much smaller in the Wei et al., 2016 configuration than in the Brouwer et al., 2017 configuration due to larger friction. However, for the đ?œ dips term, the opposite is true, probably due to higher gradients close to the wall in case of higher friction. Figure 9 and Fig. 8 also prove the phase is crucial for the damping or amplifying effects of the M4 components

However, the relative difference between the numerical solution and the semiâ€?analytical solution is of order 1% or lower. Nevertheless, quadratic convergence is expected and these discrepancies need to be elucidated

Conclusion
Four width and dependent forcings of the M4 tide were implemented in iFlow’s numerical and semi‐analytical modules. An additional full analytical module was created for horizontal bottom and exponential width con‐ figurations. For the horizontal bottom configurations, the error between the solutions computed by different solvers converges for increasing grid resolution proving accurate implementation. In the non‐horizontal bot‐ tom configuration, one of the terms does not converge. However, the error is small (order 1%). A first analysis of the solutions shows that width and depth variations, or intertidal zones, are significant contributors to the M4 surface elevations. The model is now operational for an investigation with a more realistic bathymetry as well as a more realistic first order width and depth parameterisation. This investigation should take place in a follow‐up project and should clarify if the discrepancies between measured M4 amplitudes and modeled M4 amplitudes (in iFlow) can be eliminated by the incorporation of intertidal zones in iFlow.
