The Use of Transport Time Scales as Indicators of Pollution Persistence in a Macro-Tidal Setting

The Use of Transport Time Scales as Indicators of Pollution Persistence in a Macro-Tidal Setting

An understanding of water exchange processes is essential for assessing water quality management issues in coastal bays. This paper evaluates the impact of water exchange processes on pollution persistence in a macro-tidal semi-closed coastal bay through two transport time scales (TTS), namely resid...
