Seasonal stratification and property distributions in a tropical estuary (Cochin estuary, west coast, India)

The intratidal, spring–neap and seasonal variations in stratification were examined in the Cochin estuary. The observations established a strong connection with the distribution of chemical and biological properties. The influence of tides and river discharge forcing in water column stability was qu...
