What is a Model?
A Model is a partial, simplified and mostly inadequate representation of the real world
A Model can never describe the whole complexity of the system modeled
A Model has to make basic, very often unjustified assumptions of the system it wants to describe
A Model has to neglect most of the complicated, little understood relationships of the system
So why do we use models?

Models : a complement to observations
Measurements are the primary source of information on the coastal ocean, its ecosystem and its variability. There is no point of attempting to model a coastal zone without having data !
However, data are difficult to obtain because of
- The technology of sensing instruments and platforms;
- The costs of observations over long durations and large domains.
In this context, models become important as a complement to observations.

Models : a complement to observations
Models complement observations in coastal management by:
1. Interpolating in 4 dimensions (space-time) the observations;
2. Predicting the future evolution of the system;
3. Simulating the impacts of non-observed forcing scenarios.

Modeling applications
1. Coastal management:
Coastal erosion;
Harbour construction.
2. Operational management:
Prediction (waves, tides, storm surges);
Hazardous navigation;
Impact studies;
Ecosystem protection.
3. Scientific research.

The hydrodynamic engine (HD)
The hydrodynamic model is the « engine » that transports and mixes all ecosystem constituents, including the water itself.
The hydrodynamic equations of conservation of mass and momentum are solved numerically, in every cell of a computational grid, taking into account the information present in adjacent cells.

Transport models
The hydrodynamic engine is then coupled to appropriate numerical models that transport some ecosystem constituents.
There are three major classes of transport models:
- Dispersion models
- Sediment transport models
- Ecosystem models or Water quality models
![Page 15: A gentle introduction to numerical modeling gentle introduction to numerical modeling Georg Umgiesser Coastal Oceanography ISMAR-CNR, Venezia, Italy Overview Models as complement to](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022014/5b39b7fd7f8b9a310e8eb965/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Sediment transport models deal with :
Cohesive (e.g. mud) sediment transport
Non-cohesive (e.g. sand) sediments transport
Transport models
Dispersion models deal with :
Transport and diffusion of tracers
Dispersion of pollutants

Ecosystem or Water quality models deal with interactions between some or all of the following:
- Nutrients
- Bacteria
- Phytoplankton and Chlorophyll-a
- Zooplankton
- Organic matter and Detritus
- Dissolved Oxygen
as a function of hydrodynamics and light.

Dealing with residence times
Residence time is an indicator for the renewal capability of a basinResidence time is controlled through fresh water fluxes and exchange with the open sea

Residence times and turn over time
• Simulate transport processes and dispersion of tracers and pollutants
• Estimate the renewal time of the basin
• Characterize water masses with the help of time dependent parameters
• Correlate physical, biological and chemical characteristics between each other

BIOPROThe study has been carried out in the framework of the
BIOPRO project, promoted and funded by the Environmental Policies Office of the Venice Province, in collaboration with ARPAV, the environmental protection agency of the Veneto region, and ISMAR- CNR of Venice.
The purpose of the study is the description of dispersion of the bacterial pollution, coming from some treatment plants and the rivers located along the coast of the Venice Province .
The study may provide useful information to identify the zones with higher bacterial polution risk and the unfavorable situations for water quality, depending on the meteo-marine regimes (wind and tide).

ConclusionsModeling tools are a valuable tools for assessing environmental problems in the coastal zoneThe Venice Lagoon is a prototype of lagoon where all possible processes can be studied ranging from hydrodynamic to ecological applicationsModeling approach is needed for coastal zone management and sustainable developmentThe models are available in the public domain for the application to other areas (see http:/www.ve.ismar.cnr.it/shyfem)
