STUDY SITE MIRIM - SÃO GONÇALO SYSTEM HYDRODYNAMICS AND FLOODING Wetlands in Southern Brazil PREVIOUS STUDIES Study Site Water levels are higher in the southern Mirim Lagoon TELEMAC- ( Costi et al. 2018 ) 3D modelling Water residence time is higher in the southern Mirim Validation Lagoon ( Silva et al. 2018 ) Wetlands hy- drodynamics Variability is predominantly dominated by different cycles analysis in the southern/northern Mirim Lagon ( Costi et al., in Conclusions review ) Aknowledg. 4 / 14
QUESTIONS Wetlands in Southern Brazil Study Site How does it influences the flooding patterns of wetlands? TELEMAC- 3D Do southern wetlands present higher water levels and are modelling Validation more frequently flooded? Wetlands hy- drodynamics analysis Conclusions Aknowledg. 5 / 14
