Objectives

Particularly in summer, oxygen concentrations in the Elbe estuary and several harbor basins are very low. Therefore this study aims at simulating the whether and how the oxygen conditions of this harbor basin will be influenced by controlling the opening of the sluice during ebb flow. Changes in the opening schedule will be implemented in the case the study revels positive results.
