Abstract: This project employs numerical modeling to examine the impacts of climate change, sea level rise, and alterations in land cover/land use on various aspects, including living resource habitat, estuarine water quality and clarity, flushing in coastal backwater areas, and the integrity of aquaculture infrastructure in the northern Gulf of Mexico. ACCESS resources play a crucial role in tasks such as model development, testing, conducting numerical experiments, data analysis, and visualization. The primary program packages utilized in this project include CGEM (Coastal Generalized Ecosystem Model), ROMS (Regional Ocean Modeling System), SCHISM (Semi-implicit Cross-scale Hydroscience Integrated System Model), and OpenFOAM (Open Field Operation And Manipulation). CGEM, ROMS, and SCHISM are specifically employed in estuary and coastal modeling. OpenFOAM, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) program, is applied to simulate the responses of floating oyster farms under extreme environmental conditions. Additionally, MATLAB and VisIt are essential for data processing and visualization in this project.
