Abstract: The turbidity dispersion caused by river water entrainment into the fresh water in the Shiozu Bay, Lake Biwa, was simulated using the LES turbulent model. The density current was observed in the simulation when the river inflow temperature was cooler than the lake water, and the surface dispersion was observed when river water was warmer. The simulation results could describe basic phenomena of turbidity entrainment obtained by the field observation.
