Turbulent mixing in a strongly forced salt wedge estuary

Creator:

Ralston, David K., Geyer, W. Rockwell, Lerczak, James A., and Scully, Malcolm

Abstract:

Turbulent mixing of salt is examined in a shallow salt wedge estuary with strong fluvial and tidal forcing. A numerical model of the Merrimack River estuary is used to quantify turbulent stress, shear production, and buoyancy flux. Little mixing occurs during flood tides despite strong velocities because bottom boundary layer...
