Topic	WQ: Estuary 1996 Hydrolab Temp, Salinity and DO Station #3 Oct-Nov

 

Caption:  The salinity, dissolved oxygen and temperature of the Russian River estuary near the mouth of Willow Creek (Station #3) are shown above from October 10 to November 9, 1996 (see Picture tab for map). Dissolved oxygen was at very depressed levels for fish life prior to the October 16 breaching and DO sags were beginning to recur when the estuary was breached again on November 7, 1996. Note that this deep hole off Willow Creek takes several tidal cycles to fully re-oxygenate bottom waters. Cyclic fluctuations are as a result of new oxygen rich sea water intruding with high tides. Data are from Merritt Smith Consulting (1997) and Sonoma County. See InfoLinks for more information.
