Resumo

The Parque Estadual do Cantão is located at Tocantins (TO), north of Brazil, in a delta formed by the rivers Javaés, Coco and Araguaia. It is a wetland where the seasonal changes drive the biogeochemistry cycles. The knowledge of the water flux dynamics is very important for the understanding of these cycles. This work uses a methodology to model and simulate the velocity field based on Navier–Stokes equations.
