Abstract
A method of computation of tidal waves in a marginal sea is suggested. The method is based on transformation to the curvilinear body-fitted coordinates. The method is applied for modelling of tidal dynamics of the Barents Sea. The effect of the main factors on modelling accuracy is investigated. Results of the M-2-wave and residual current computat ions are presented. Zone boundaries with different friction velocities are calculated. These boundaries determine transition of the sediment ary rocks into suspension.
