Wind Effects on Small‐Scale River and Creek Plumes

In contrast to large river plumes, Coriolis effects are weak, and inertia is quickly depleted so that the fate and structure of small‐scale plumes are more sensitive to tide and wind. Advected alongshore by reversing tidal currents in absence of wind forcing, small buoyant plumes are persistently de...
