Abstract
To improve sediment management strategies in coastal waters, the presented software, PROVER-M, uses a simple near-field model that projects the active distribution of fine sediments after a disposal of dredged material. PROVER-M aims to provide valuable input for far-field models, enabling them to more accurately simulate the disposal of fine sediments on a larger scale. Based on the input, PROVER-M calculates the dynamic plume behavior, including the convective descent of sediments and their dynamic collapse on the bottom. The result is a spatial distribution of disposed sediments through the water column and on the ground.

N1 - Funding Information: The development of the PROVER-M model was funded by the Federal Waterways Engineering and Research Institute (BAW), Germany in Hamburg (2018–2021). The authors would like to acknowledge the importance of the technical discussions we had with Anna Zorndt, Holger Weilbeer, and Benjamin Fricke from BAW Hamburg during the development of this project. Further thanks go to our colleagues at the Ludwig Franzius Institute for their support during the development and writing of the model and this paper. The authors also appreciate the work done by Marlena Gundlach for the graphic design of the PROVER logo. Colormaps applied in the illustrative example section are based on scientific colormaps [37,38]. The publication of this article was funded by the Open Access Fund of Leibniz Universität Hannover.
