Bays in coastal upwelling regions are physically driven and biochemically fueled by their
interaction with open coastal waters. Wind-driven flow over the shelf imposes a circulation in …

Concerns have grown over the increase of nutrients and pollutants discharged into the
estuaries and coastal seas. The retention and export of these materials inside a system …

Climate‐driven changes in the water cycle, patterns of atmospheric pressure gradients, tidal
dynamics, and density distributions are likely to alter circulations in both Chesapeake Bay …

Groundwater discharge transports dissolved constituents to the ocean, affecting coastal
carbon budgets and water quality. However, the magnitude and mechanisms of …

Water level variations were used to calculate cold-front-induced water exchange fluxes for
three Louisiana bays. Twenty-nine cold fronts were identified from weather maps between …

Numerical experiments are conducted to investigate how axial winds affect stratification and
circulation in the partially mixed estuary of Chesapeake Bay. In the absence of rotational …

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 …

Salt intrusion in the Pearl River estuary (PRE) is a dynamic process that is influenced by a
range of factors and to date, few studies have examined the effects of winds and waves on …
