Tidal Flow Dynamics and Background Fluorescence of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway in the Vicinity of Sullivan's Island and the Isle of Palms, Sout (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781496177483)

To effectively plan site-specific studies to understand the connection between wastewater effluent and shellfish beds, data are needed concerning flow dynamics and background fluorescence in the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway near the effluent outfalls on Sullivan's Island and the Isle of Palms. Tidal flows were computed by the U.S. Geological Survey for three stations and longitudinal water-quality profiles were collected at high and low tide. Flows for the three U.S. Geological Survey stations, the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway by the Isle of Palms Marina, the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway by the Ben M. Sawyer Memorial Bridge at Sullivan's Island, and Breach Inlet, were computed for the 53-day period from December 4, 2011, to January 26, 2012.
