Seasonal control of the Saint-Lawrence maximum turbidity zone by tidal-flat sedimentationEstuaries - Tập 9 Số 2 - Trang 84-94 - 1986
Lucotte, Marc, d’Anglejan, Bruno
The core of the turbidity maximum zone in the Saint-Lawrence Estuary is located in the North Channel and oscillates in front of the large (3×106 m2) intertidal flats and marshes of Cap Tourmente. It is shown that seasonal fluctuations in the intensity and the position of this core are mainly determined by suspended sediment exchanges between the channel and the marshes. Fine sediments, most of the...... hiện toàn bộ

Hypersaline bottom water: Peard Bay, AlaskaEstuaries - Tập 2 Số 3 - Trang 189-193 - 1979
Wiseman, Wm. J.
Hypersaline bottom conditions have been observed in Peard Bay, Alaska. The water appears to be renewed on an annual basis. Although it does not seem to affect permafrost degradation rates in Peard Bay, similar pools of water along the Beaufort Sea coast could greatly increase the rates of permafrost degradation. Order of magnitude estimates suggest that the hypersaline waters do not become anoxic.
Morphometric relationships of penaeid shrimps in a coastal lagoon: Spatio-temporal variability and management implicationsEstuaries - Tập 25 Số 2 - Trang 282-287 - 2002
Pérez-Castañeda, Roberto, Defeo, Omar
Spatio-temporal variability in the length-weight relationship of four sympatric shrimp species (Farfantepeneus aztecus, F. brasiliensis, F. duorarum, andF. notialis) was evaluated in the Celestun lagoon, Mexico. Monthly samples were taken throughout 2 yr in three hydrological zones (seaward, middle, and inner) and climatic seasons (Nortes, Dry, and Rainy). Significant intraspecific and interspecif...... hiện toàn bộ
A comparison of residence time calculations using simple compartment models of the Altamaha River estuary, GeorgiaEstuaries - Tập 25 Số 6 - Trang 1304-1317 - 2002
Sheldon, Joan E., Alber, Merryl
The residence and flushing times of an estuary are two different concepts that are often confused. Flushing time is the time required for the freshwater inflow to equal the amount of freshwater originally present in the estuary. It is specific to freshwater (or materials dissolved in it) and represents the transit time through the entire system (e.g., from head of tide to the mouth). Residence tim...... hiện toàn bộ
