Abstract
Abstract. A one-dimensional advective-diffusive model is used to investigate the influence of channel convergence on the runoff-dependence of the distance salt intrudes from the ocean into estuaries. We express the runoff dependence of the dispersion coefficient as K~ρβ, and that of the intrusion extent as xs~ρ
