It has become clear that estuaries with low rates of freshwater inflow are an important but
overlooked sphere of estuarine science. Low-inflow estuaries (LIEs) represent a major class …

A three-dimensional hydrodynamic model is applied to the Mobile Bay system to study water
and salt exchange with the northern Gulf of Mexico via Main Pass (MP) and eastern …

The northern limits of three mangrove species—Avicennia germinans (Black Mangrove),
Rhizophora mangle (Red Mangrove), Laguncularia racemosa (White Mangrove)—on the …

Estuarine circulation attributes such as stratification and flushing time significantly influence
estuarine ecological processes. Stratification reflects how much vertical mixing occurs in an …

Freshwater discharge into an estuary can affect its horizontal density gradients, water-
column stratification, and subtidal circulation. An incomplete understanding of the effects of …

Current velocity and hydrographic measurements were obtained in Mossoró estuary, a
tropical semiarid estuary in Northeastern Brazil, to explore the hydrodynamic regime …

Marine transitional environments play an important role in human sustainability. Around
these ecosystems, coastal lagoons are subject to high anthropogenic pressure from …

Along the northeast coast of Brazil, numerous estuaries with intricate morphologies,
characterized by multiple channels, islands, and intertidal areas, are found. These estuaries …

Measurements over an annual cycle of longitudinal and vertical salinity distributions in a
small sub-estuary, the Tavy Estuary, UK, are used to illustrate the dependence of salt …

Three and a half years of hydrographic, velocity, and meteorological observations are used
to examine the dynamics of upper Elkhorn Slough, a seasonally inverse, shallow, mesotidal …
