Interacting Buoyant Coastal Currents (INBUCOC)
Start date: Jun 7, 2010, End date: Mar 19, 2012,
"Buoyant coastal currents strongly influence coastal circulation and ecosystems and, on a global scale, the redistribution of freshwater. The interaction of buoyant currents from different river sources is a common phenomenon; for example, the western Adriatic Sea coastal current. The manner in which buoyant currents interact will influence the downstream coastal distribution of waterborne materia ...
