Modelling

ABP Marine Environmental Research Ltd (ABPmer), has a long established Modelling team which provides a comprehensive service to support hydraulic investigations of river, estuary and coastal systems, offering descriptions of:

  • Flows
  • Waves
  • Sediment transport
  • Water quality

The Modelling team aims to offer the best available solution to meet the individual project requirements. We maintain a range of sophisticated numerical modelling software and recognise the importance of understanding the limitations inherent in all modelling approaches.

Services

The primary suite of models which are supported by the team include:

  • MIKE 11
  • DELFT 3D
  • MIKE 21
  • MIKE 3
  • MIKE FM
