Horizontal Salinity Gradient Effects in Apalachicola Bay

Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering, 1991
This research demonstrates that horizontal density gradients approximated by salinity gradient represent an additional forcing term in the equations of motion, which have a significant effect in certain portions of a well-mixed estuary. The horizontal density gradient terms have been added to a two-dimensional depth-averaged hydrodynamic and salinity ...

Carbon Reservoir Effects in Eastern Oyster from Apalachicola Bay, USA

Radiocarbon, 2017
AbstractEastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) is an ubiquitous estuarine shellfish taxon in eastern North America and one of the most abundant materials available for radiocarbon (14C) dating. We examine spatiotemporal variability in carbon reservoir effects among pre-bomb oysters from Apalachicola Bay, USA, a river-influenced estuary on the northern ...

Chronology of Sediment Nutrient Geochemistry in Apalachicola Bay, Florida (U.S.A)

Journal of Coastal Research, 2008
Abstract Land use changes have been shown to alter the balance of nutrient and mineral sources and sinks to coastal systems. These shifts are often preserved in sediment records. In Apalachicola Bay, productivity is dependent on nutrient loading from the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee-Flint (ACF) river basin; alterations to ACF watershed flow by management

The Hydrography of Apalachicola and Florida Bays, Florida

1961
Abstract : Eight hydrographic surveys were made in each of the bays, two each season, for the year 1960. In each bay eight stations were occupied for a 25 hour period commencing 1200 of the first date to 1200 of the second. Simultaneous hourly observations were made by 2 man crews, occupying skiffs or stationed on bridges, of water temperature, current

Modelling Wind Effects on Subtidal Salinity in Apalachicola Bay, Florida

Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 2002
Abstract Salinity is an important factor for oyster and estuarine productivity in Apalachicola Bay. Observations of salinity at oyster reefs have indicated a high correlation between subtidal salinity variations and the surface winds along the bay axis in an approximately east–west direction.

Recent Estuarine Deposits, Chesapeake Bay and Apalachicola Bay: ABSTRACT

AAPG Bulletin, 1985
Estuarine facies are not easily discernible in the ancient record, because they represent a transition stage between fluvial and marine deposits. Modern estuarine sediments, nevertheless, are widespread because of the ongoing marine transgression.
