description | Although the barrier, which is to be constructed about 15 km seawards of London Bridge, need only be closed to exclude exceptionally high tides to fulfil its primary function as a flood prevention device, its design is such that it could be operated as a tide-control structure, closing at a particular stage during each ebb and opening at a similar stage on the succeeding flood, unless a storm surge is forecast. This paper outlines a theoretical study, undertaken at the request of the Greater London Council, to assess the effect on the condition of the water of the Thames Estuary of operating the barrier on a regular basis in such a way as to prevent water levels landwards of it falling below Newlyn Datum. |
