Abstract: A two dimensional model for the simulation of solute transport by convection and diffusion into shallow water flow over variable bottom is presented. It is based on a finite volume method over triangular unstructured grids. A first order upwind technique is applied to solve the flux terms in both the flow and solute equations and the bed slope source terms and a centred discretization is applied to the diffusion and friction terms. The convenience of considering the fully coupled system of equations is indicated. Some comparisons are carried out in order to show the performance of the different options.
