Salinity and temperature interactions and their relationship to the microbiology of the estuarine environment

Creator:

Morita, Richard Y., Jones, Larry P., Griffiths, Robert P., and Staley, Thomas E.

Abstract:

An estuary, unlike the open ocean, is a dynamic system that is continuously undergoing changes in its physical and chemical properties. Marked fluctuations in the levels and kinds of nutrients, temperature, and salinity are normally found in estuarine environments. These changes occur principally as a result of freshwater intrusions, tidal...
