Evolving Interior Mixing Regimes in a Tidal River Plume
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 Microstructure profiling was utilized to estimate vertical mixing (via vertical turbulent buoyancy flux) during a tidal pulse in the interior Merrimack River plume in calm winds.

Structure and variability of the Pechora plume in the southeastern part of the Barents Sea
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 The Pechora River forms the large Pechora River plume in the southeastern part of the Barents Sea (also called the Pechora Sea). Many previous works addressed water masses in the Barents Sea, however, the Pechora plume received relatively little ...

Structure of the Ob-Yenisei plume in the Kara Sea shortly before autumn ice formation
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 The major Siberian rivers form large river plumes in the Arctic Ocean, which govern structure of the sea surface layer at the Arctic shelf. These river plumes were explicitly studied during the warm period in summer and early autumn characterized by high

The Variation of the Salt Concentration at the Discharge of a River into a Saline Water
Analele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Ovidius Constanta: Seria Matematica, 2020 A plume model is used to describe the variation of the salt concentration at the discharge of a river into a saline water. The integral model of the plume behavior consists of a set of ordinary differential equations derived from conservation of mass ...

Influence of the Coriolis Force on Spreading of River Plumes
Remote Sensing, 2023 Wind is the main external force that governs the spreading of river plumes in the sea. Many previous studies demonstrated that the spreading direction of river plumes (especially small plumes) generally coincides with wind direction. At the same time, the majority of river plumes are strongly affected by the Coriolis force, which is also among the ...

Bacterial Biogeography across the Amazon River-Ocean Continuum
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017 Spatial and temporal patterns in microbial biodiversity across the Amazon river-ocean continuum were investigated along ∼675 km of the lower Amazon River mainstem, in the Tapajós River tributary, and in the plume and coastal ocean during low and high ...
