Fig. 8.11. Vertical salinity profiles from selected CTD stations of the November '95 cruise
of salinity, it was not possible to use one scale for all profiles; hence offshore stations
have an expanded salinity scale. Repeated profiles at two locations are presented as
an example of local variability (Fig. na,b); they were taken under different wind conditions in the inner part of the salt intrusion. In both stations, intensification of the
