Resumen

The tidal asymmetry under the action of sea level rise in Hangzhou Bay. Coastlines dominated by the tide are not only directly affected by the rise of the mean sea level but also by the tidal dynamics. The computational domain of the hydrodynamic model covers the entire Hangzhou Bay and takes into account the feedback between the tidal motion and the erodible bottom. Its main application fields include: the simulation of different sea level rise (SLR) rates, the interaction between tidal duration and skewness and the interaction between tidal range and astronomical tide. The results on tidal asymmetry in Hangzhou Bay is a systematic process consisting of four aspects: Firstly, the tide increase, which is affected by the sea level rise, is between 25% and 50%. Secondly, the value of the sea level rise is about two times the added value of the tidal range, and the tidal range increased to the left side of the tidal wave propagation direction, which accelerated the propagation velocity. Thirdly, the sea level rise amplified the M2 tidal amplitude and delayed the M2 tidal phase in the inner bay, which reduced about 50%. Finally, the change of the tidal range caused by tide level had the same magnitude as the change caused by the mean sea level rise. The purpose of this study was to emphasize the importance of the predictions of the response area affected by tidal asymmetry based on the action of the sea level rise in Hangzhou Bay.
