Flushing and Retention of Buoyant Particles in the Delaware Bay
COASTAL OCEAN AND SHELF SEA DYNAMICS II POSTER
ocean sciences | 12 december 2024
Robert A. Mason, Tobias Kukulka, Robert J. Chant, ...
Previous studies have indicated that buoyant particles, such as plastics, plankton, or sea foam, in the Delaware Bay converge quickly to a patchy inho...

Effect of Lagrangian Residual Flow and Eulerian Mean Flow on Surface-Trapped Particle Convergence in an Estuary
EXPLORING OCEAN TRANSPORT THROUGH LAGRANGIAN ANALYSIS I POSTER
physical oceanography: mesoscale and smaller | 22 february 2024
Robert A. Mason, Tobias Kukulka, Robert J. Chant, ...
Buoyant particles, such as foam, plankton, and microplastics, are common features in estuaries. While the convergence of these particles is often cons...
