A three-dimensional primitive equation hydrodynamic model was used to investigate the impacts from freshwater introduction into a shallow brackish lake. The proposed effort is an attempt to reduce seasonal salinity intrusion from the Gulf of Mexico through tidal passes and navigation canals during periods of low tributary flows. The model is a modification of the Princeton Ocean Model.
