Line 27: \| '''Flow in Floodplain''' \|\| Rural floodplain models typically employ grid/mesh resolutions of 10m and 50m (although resolutions up to 200m have been used) depending on the size of the area to be analysed, the characteristics/dimensions of the floodplain and the desired level of output detail. \|- \| '''Lakes and Estuaries''' \|\| ~~these~~These situations often include areas of open water where less detail is required than along the water body boundary. Such situations are well suited to a flexible mesh rather than fixed grid based model as the mesh is able to incorporate a change of resolution across the model domain. ~~element~~Element resolutions for these models can span the full range as described above depending on project requirements. \|- \| '''Flow Over and Embankment''' \|\| Embankments effectively act as weirs in the floodplain context. Many 2D modelling packages have automatic or manually activated corrections that compensate for the error in head loss typically associated with modelling broad-crested weir flow with a 2D scheme. For practical purposes, a single 2D element is generally adequate to represent the impact of a levee, road or railway embankment. The resolution of these elements is generally not a significant limitation on the schematisation of most domains.
