“…Examples include those from estuaries/bays such as the Delaware [ Münchow and Garvine , ], the Chesapeake [ Boicourt , ], the Columbia [ Hickey et al ., ; Horner‐Devine et al ., ], and the Niagara [ Masse and Murthy , ; Horner‐Devine , ], and from low‐salinity bands that result from multirivers, such as in the Southeast U.S. Continental Shelf [ Blanton et al ., ; Kourafalou et al ., ]. In addition, an “upstream” coastal current also develops [ Kourafalou et al ., ; Matano and Palma , ], which is particularly pronounced in delta discharges [ Kourafalou , ; Tsiaras et al ., ; Karageorgis et al ., ]. The buoyant outflow is subject to a variety of factors that can change the “typical” circulation pattern.…”
