Example figures: exceedance frequency of salinity limits
From BAWiki
Explanations
Relative frequency [0.0,1.0] for which the salinity exceeds a given salinity limit within the period of data analysis.
- left top: result for threshold 3.75 E-3 (approx. 3.75 PSU).
- right top: result for threshold 11.25 E-3 (approx. 11.25 PSU).
- left bottom: result threshold 18.75 E-3 (approx. 18.75 PSU).
- right bottom: result for threshold 26.25 (approx. 26.25 PSU).
Please notice that frequency cannot reach a value of 1.0 in temporarily dry areas (e.g. tidal flats).
Examples
salinity > 3.75 x 10-3 | salinity > 11.25 x 10-3 |
---|---|
salinity > 18.75 x 10-3 | salinity > 26.25 x 10-3 |
