Abstract: | The response of Cádiz Bay to sea-breeze wind stress and tidal boundary forcing—individually and in combination—is studied using a 2D depth-averaged, non-linear, high-resolution hydrodynamic model. Linear superposition of the solution for the K1 and S1 constituents, like the solution obtained with an allowance for both the input functions together, is shown to give rise to a modulation of the K1 tidal dynamics. It is precisely this modulation which is responsible for the observed seasonal variations in the K1 tidal constants in Cádiz Bay. |
