Maximum flow rate map Zoute ecotopes Westerschelde 2001

Van de Westerschelde was created in 2001 with an ecotope map. A salty ecotope map is constructed by merging several layers of information from the intertidal area: soil height map (height and depth), geomorphological map, dry fall duration map, flow map and salt map. The current speeds are calculated with Simona using the SCALWEST2000 model, a curved grid.
