Influence of the Coriolis Force on Spreading of River Plumes

Influence of the Coriolis Force on Spreading of River Plumes

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 affect...
