A STUDY ON THE TIDAL BEHAVIOR OF THE IZMIR BAY WITH AN OPEN-SOURCE MODEL

In this paper, tidal behavior of Izmir Bay modeled by open source ADCIRC - Advanced Circulation Model. The source code of the ADCIRC installed on a local computer, the preparation of the files will be used as input required for the model simulation, the creation of the calculation grid, the coefficients representing the open boundary conditions, and the obtaining of the bathymetry data were made and cloud-based and open-access DesignSafe CI environment was also used to run the simulations. The results are compared with observed data at Izmir Mentes Mareograph Station and simulations of different time intervals and periods were graphed with the help of FORTRAN based FigureGen visualization tool.
