Transport of riverine sediment from different outlets in the Pearl River Estuary during the wet season

Marine Geology, 2019
Riverine sediment is important for the development of river deltas and for carrying both nutrients and contaminants into estuaries and coasts. Previous studies of sediment transport have focused on single-sourced estuaries and paid less attention to ...

Impact of tides and winds on estuarine circulation in the Pearl River Estuary

Continental Shelf Research, 2018
The Finite-Volume Coastal Ocean Model (FVCOM) is used to simulate the dynamics of the circulation in the Pearl River Estuary (PRE), validated against the in-situ measurements of a cruise survey. The model simulation agrees well with observed sea level at

Accelerating invasion rate in a highly invaded estuary

Science, 1998
Biological invasions are a major global environmental and economic problem. Analysis of the San Francisco Bay and Delta ecosystem revealed a large number of exotic species that dominate many habitats in terms of number of species, number of individuals ...

Estuaries

1975
In the following an attempt is made to outline the specific problems of modelling of estuaries as characterized by the discharge of fresh water into a partially enclosed sea water body. The hydrodynamical regime and exchange mechanisms encountered in estuaries lead to specific chemical, biological and geological processes requiring specially adapted ...

Estuaries

2007
Although well-established in scientific literature, the meaning of the term 'estuary' has attracted only limited consideration in international law. Scientific literature has defined it as 'denoting a semi-enclosed coastal body of water which has a free connection with the open sea and within which sea water is measurably diluted with fresh water ...
