MIKE 21/3 Particle Tracking

Quantify the impacts of dredging, disposal, and reclamation activities on the environment

 

MIKE 21/3 Particle Tracking (PT) is a specialised software module designed for tracking the movement and behaviour of particles, such as sediment, pollutants, or contaminants, across rivers, estuaries, coastal zones, and marine environments. It's ideal for those seeking enhanced capabilities in analysing particle fate and transport, predicting pollution dispersion patterns, assessing environmental risks, and supporting decision-making in water resources and environmental management.

 

Using Lagrangian particle tracking methods, MIKE 21 PT traces individual particle trajectories influenced by fluid dynamics, including currents, turbulence, and dispersion. With seamless integration into existing hydrodynamic models, this real-time simulation and visualisation tool facilitates swift responses to environmental threats, serving as a vital asset for professionals committed to achieving a harmonious balance between development and nature.
