of 2 to 10 parts per thousand (ppt), compared
with the salinity of salt water, which is about 35 ppt. Where there is a large tidal
range but little freshwater inflow mixing is more complete. In coastal lagoons,
where there are large open waters, small tidal range, and low freshwater inputs,
wind is usually a more important mixing agent than tides. It is truly evident the
awesome role estauries play in the transition between salt and fresh water.
