Integrated CMS-PTM modelling of tidally and wave-driven hydrodynamics and particle transport at the kitchener drain estuary, Egypt

Key Points

• Interactions of tidal and wave-driven hydrodynamics significantly influence particle transport dynamics in estuarine systems.
• Modeling outcomes indicate substantial variability in sediment movement due to hydrodynamic forces at the Kitchener Drain Estuary.
• Assessment using integrated CMS-PTM modeling evaluates the impact of both tidal and wave forces on particle dynamics.
• Findings highlight the importance of advanced modeling to enhance our understanding of estuarine environments.
