Upscaled modeling of Vaccares lake in Camargue

Participants : Carole Delenne, Antoine Rousseau, Vincent Guinot.

Sélim Cornet developed a numerical model for the hydrodynamics of Vaccares system in Camargue. The data and reference simulations (made with TELEMAC-2D) were provided by Tour du Valat (contact O. Boutron). Sélim's work consisted in the implementation and validation of the porosity shallow water model developped by Vincent GUINOT , in order to obtain accurate but inexpensive simulations of the Vaccares hydrosystem.
