A program for solving the unsteady flow equations by implicit four-point method : application to Niagara River / by I. Stepien, D.C.L. Lam and C.R. Murthy,: En13-5/86-17E-PDF

"The implicit four-point method is presented for computing water level elevations and vertically integrated velocities in the open channel [sic]. The theory and FORTRAN program listing of the model are given. Two examples of applications (Vistula River, Poland and Niagara River) have also been included. In particular, the importance of incorporating the flow dynamics in the accurate estimation of contaminant loadings from Niagara River into Lake Ontario is demonstrated. Such a model synthesis approach is essential for the prediction of the transport and fate of the toxic contaminants in the coastal zone"--Abstract.
