Spatial patterns in coastal lagoons related to the hydrodynamics of seawater intrusion.
Marine Pollution Bulletin 2017 June 16
Marine intrusion was simulated in a choked and in a restricted coastal lagoon by using a 3D-hydrodynamic model. To study the spatiotemporal progression of seawater intrusion and its mixing efficiency with lagoon waters we define Marine Mixed Volume (VMM ) as a new hydrodynamic indicator. Spatial patterns in both lagoons were described by studying the time series and maps of VMM taking into account the meteorological conditions encountered during a water year. The patterns comprised well-mixed zones (WMZ) and physical barrier zones (PBZ) that act as hydrodynamic boundaries. The choked Bages-Sigean lagoon comprises four sub-basins: a PBZ at the inlet, and two WMZ's separated by another PBZ corresponding to a constriction zone. The volumes of the PBZ were 2.1 and 5.4 millions m3 with characteristic mixing timescale of 68 and 84days, respectively. The WMZ were 12.3 and 43.3 millions m3 with characteristics mixing timescale of 70 and 39days, respectively.
