Tidal estuaries are regarded as highly important ecosystems, mostly due to their high primary productivity and associated role carbon sinks. In these is mainly the photosynthetic fixation by phytoplankton microphytobenthos. The of two communities has been studied separately, directly comparable estimates rates in same estuary relatively scarce. present study aimed characterize spatio-temporal variability microphytobenthos a tidal estuary, Ria de Aveiro (Portugal), estimate annual...
Abstract Reliable predictions of future inundation extent within estuaries require a precise evaluation extreme sea levels and the application accurate numerical models that account for physical processes driving estuarine hydrodynamics. In this study, methodology integrates estimation local with high-resolution modeling was applied to assess in five systems located on Portuguese Coast. The main findings obtained were compared available results from popular bathtub approach, disregards...
