DOI: 10.1002/lom3.10356
Abstract: This work provides a rare quantification of lateral spreading from Lagrangian measurements in a buoyant river plume by comparing four methods. Drifter motions, including along‐stream shear and rotation, can be incorrectly interpreted as lateral spreading.… read more here.
