High Temporal Resolution Monitoring of Suspended Matter Changes from GOCI Measurements in Lake Taihu
Remote Sensing, 2019 The Tiaoxi River is the main source of water for Lake Taihu and can result in plumes in the lake after heavy precipitation events. These plumes have played a crucial role in the water quality changes within the lake.

Internal Waves as a Source of Concentric Rings within Small River Plumes
Remote Sensing, 2021 This study is focused on concentric rings, which are regularly observed by remote sensing of small river plumes located in different regions worldwide.

MODIS observed increase in duration and spatial extent of sediment plumes in Greenland fjords [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2014 The freshwater flux from the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) to the North Atlantic Ocean carries extensive but poorly documented volumes of sediment. We develop a suspended sediment concentration (SSC) retrieval algorithm using a large Greenland specific in ...

River Plume Rooted on the Sea-Floor: Seasonal and Spring-Neap Variability of the Pearl River Plume Front [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 The buoyant river plume front exhibits substantial variability in the sea surface under energetic external forcing. Although highly dynamic, the river plume is often “rooted” at specific locations through the bottom river plume front. In this study, we addressed this mechanism using the Pearl River plume as an example based on a well-validated ...

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

Lateral Border of a Small River Plume: Salinity Structure, Instabilities and Mass Transport
Remote Sensing, 2022 The interfaces between small river plumes and ambient seawater have extremely sharp horizontal and vertical salinity gradients, often accompanied by velocity shear. It results in formation of instabilities at the lateral borders of small plumes.

A numerical study of the formation of the Rhône River plume [PDF]
Journal of Marine Systems, 1998 A three-dimensional primitive equation ocean model is applied to the Rhone River plume (northwestern Mediterranean). The plume dynamics are analyzed through the vorticity balance of the depth-averaged current. This balance highlights the importance of the JEBAR and nonlinear terms.

Remote Sensing, 2015 A strong driver of water quality change in the Great Barrier Reef (GBR) is the pulsed or intermittent nature of terrestrial inputs into the GBR lagoon, including delivery of increased loads of sediments, nutrients, and toxicants via flood river plumes ...
