Abstract [] The prediction of changes in the tidal regime due to the sea dike closure in the Saemankum area was performed using the nonlinear finite element model, TIDE. Based upon an overall comparison of calibrated model results with available field data, the TIDE model behaves well and is good representation of the hydrodynamic of the Saemankum tidal project area. It is shown that the TIDE model does an excellent job of computing the changes of tidal characteristics resulting in sea dike closure in an estuary area.
