Title: Barotropic ocean tide model Author: David Einšpigel Department: Department of Geophysics Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Zdeněk Martinec, DrSc., Department of Geophysics Abstract: The main aim of this thesis is developing of a numerical model of an oceanic circulation forced by the lunisolar tidal potential. The circulation is described by the shallow water equations which are derived from the fundamental balance laws assuming that the ratio of the vertical and horizontal dimension of the investigated problem is small, which leads to the formulation of the 2- D task. Furthermore, programs for solving the shallow water equations were written. Their functionality is demonstrated on several examples. The programs include an ephemeridal tidal modul which computes the complete lunisolar tidal potential. Keywords: oceanic flow, shallow water equations, lunisolar tidal potential
