Three-Dimensional Modeling of Pollutant Dispersion in Lake Garda (North Italy)

Multi-scale evaluation of a 3D lake model forced by an atmospheric model against standard monitoring data

“…A series of preliminary experiments using three-dimensional hydrodynamic numerical models were also undertaken in the past (Casulli and Pecenik, 1994;Lovato and Pecenik, 2012), although limited to rather idealized conditions, such as constant and uniform wind field and/or constant eddy viscosities. More recently, numerical experiments (Amadori et al, 2018) have been performed by forcing the Delft3D model (Lesser et al, 2004) with wind fields resulting from WRF model (Skamarock et al, 2008).…”
