Abstract

This paper presents the calibration and validation of a hydrodynamic model to simulate the tides, currents and salinity and temperature conditions in the coastal area of Santa Marta Bay. The methodology used includes the numeric implementation of the model, the development of field measurements, and measurements data compared with simulations data. The error between measurements and simulations data was estimated to determine the quantitative reliability of the model.
