Description:
Abstract:
In-situ near-shore seawater measurements of dissolved radon, conductivity, and water level were used to determine the advection rate of groundwater onto the fringing reef off Makua, HI, USA.
Purpose:
Characterization of the advection rate of groundwater onto the reef, in conjunction with measurements of circulation and waves and profiles of resistivity on the shoreline will be used to assess the potential for terrestrial groundwater intrusion on the reef and the sources and fate of these water masses.
