Marine/Freshwater Mixing, Figure 10 Salinity structure and circulation patterns in the Walpole-Nornalup Inlet estuary in midwinter during the time of major riverine flows
(After Semeniuk et al., 2011). (a) Surface water patterns evident from the estuarine salinity. The five freshwater sources producing freshwater plumes are evident, with the
Frankland River producing a major plume that is being deflected clockwise. The marine influx is evident to a small extent at the estuary outlet. (b) Basal water patterns
evident from the estuarine salinity. Each of five freshwater sources are still evident as plumes into the estuary, with the Frankland River producing a major plume that is
being deflected clockwise. The marine influx also is clearly evident as a major plume into the estuary, moving clockwise in concert with the freshwater plume from the
Frankland River.
