Abstract: <p>This thesis focuses on the design of a modelling framework consisting of loose-coupling of a sequence of spatial and process models and procedures necessary to predict future flood events for the years 2030 and 2050 in Tabasco Mexico. Temperature and precipitation data from the Hadley Centers Coupled Model (HadCM3), for those future years were downscaled using the Statistical Downscaling… more Full Text: ADAPT: AN AUTOMATED DECISION SUPPORT TOOL FOR ADAPTATION TO CLIMATE CHANGE-DRIVEN FLOODS PREDICTED FROM A MULTISCALE AND MULTI-MODEL FRAMEWORK Predicting flood extents in Tabasco Mexico A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial …

The model of interest describes a wind-driven current with depth-dependent eddy viscosity and is formulated in two different systems; a complex-velocity system and a real-value coupled system. In general, the Sinc-based methods excel over other traditional numerical methods due to their… more Full Text: An Application of the Sinc-Collocation Method in Oceanography A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in the Faculty of Arts and Science TRENT UNIVERSITY …
