Estuaries: A Physical Introduction

By Keith R. Dyer

Book Overview

An estuary is the tidal mouth of a large river, and is therefore a marine area where freshwater and saltwater meet. The second edition of this book continues to concentrate on the physical aspects of estuaries, and is updated to include research on sediment dynamics, estuarine mixing mechanisms, effects of global warming and mathematical modelling of estuarine physics.
