Sediment transport model application to Lido inlet and Treporti canal

The aim of this work was to carry out a preliminary comparison between ADCP data (current and suspended solids concentrations), measured at Lido inlet, and numerical simulation results. Suspended load and bed load have been computed by models and compared with the average of ADCP measurements in the water column. The obtained results show that there is a need to acquire knowledge about the bottom layer where the instrument can not measure the relevant parameters.
