Description for Estuarine Circulation
Hardback. This work explores how the motion and interaction of fresh and salt water determine the salinity within a particular estuary, and thereby the balance of all living and nonliving resources there. Series: Contemporary Issues in Science and Society. Num Pages: 378 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PSPF; PSPM; RBKC; TQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 25. Weight in Grams: 744.
Estuaries exist along the edge of the oceans and seas, and are char acterized by the dilution of sea water by inflowing fresher waters. The motion and interaction of these two types of water (fresh and salt water) determine the salinity distribution within the estuary and that, in turn, affects the organisms residing there. The purpose of this vol ume is to review the status of our understanding of estuarine circu lation and how the circulation patterns affect living and nonliving resources in estuaries. For many years, the primary paradigm for estuarine circulation was the two-layered net or nontidal gravitational ... Read more
