Abstract	The Tutorial is a companion document of Report JHR 02-275, entitled "Two-Dimensional Finite-Volume Hydrodynamic Model for River-Marsh Systems: User's Manual," which provides in detail the description of the model and its operational procedures. An Intel Pentium at 200MHz or above, running under Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 95 or 98 is required to run the model. This document is prepared for users who would like to have a hands-on experience of the model's operation before applying the model to simulate shallow water flow in a river-marsh system. Three examples with analytical solutions and a real site project are provided for practice. The step-by-step instruction will guide a user from creating a project for simulation to presenting the results. The model and all necessary data are provided in the disk included.
