BUOYANCY SPREAD OF WASTE WATER IN COASTAL REGIONS. (1968). Coastal Engineering Proceedings, 1(11), 89. https://doi.org/10.9753/icce.v11.89
Abstract
Waste water may due to buoyancy effects spread horizontally on top of the recipient. The spreading is chiefly determined by the buoyancy flux and to a large extent unaffected by dilution and diffusion. This phenomenon is of great practical importance for larger outfalls of waste or cooling water in coastal regions.
