Mixed-Convective Processes Within Seafloor Sediments Arising From Fresh Groundwater Discharge

Mixed-Convective Processes Within Seafloor Sediments Arising From Fresh Groundwater Discharge

The dependence of near-shore ecosystems on the freshwater component of submarine groundwater discharge (SFGD) is well recognized. Previous studies of SFGD have typically assumed that SFGD occurs through aquitards that are in direct contact with seawater. These studies provide no guidance on the dist...
