Salt Fluxes within a Very Shallow Subtropical Estuary

This article describes the transport processes and net salt flux within a shallow estuarine system, with particular reference to the Coombabah Lake–Creek system in Queensland, Australia. Observations of currents and salinity at two locations within Coombabah Lake provided a basis for assessing the r...

Zusammenfassung:	This article describes the transport processes and net salt flux within a shallow estuarine system, with particular reference to the Coombabah Lake–Creek system in Queensland, Australia. Observations of currents and salinity at two locations within Coombabah Lake provided a basis for assessing the relative importance of various transport processes within a very shallow (water depth
