Salinity in a slightly stratified estuary. Top: as a
function of depth and distance along the estuary, numbers indicate station
locations, mixing between upper and lower layer is indicated
by the faint arrows;
bottom: in vertical
salinity profiles for stations 1 - 4.
Surface and bottom salinity increase from station 1 to station 4,
but surface salinity is always lower than bottom salinity.
