Introduction

In order to be able to implement the measure “Managing the ‘Reiherstieg’ sluice” leading to better oxygen conditions in this area, a modeling study was conducted. It was investigated whether a longer lasting opening of this sluice will influence the oxygen conditions in this harbor channel (‘Reiherstieg’) and the adjacent harbor basins. Simulation of the processes by a hydrodynamic numerical model was used to study which kind of effect the measure would have on the oxygen content.
