Example figures: maximum salinity

Explanations

Maximum value of salinity during a complete tidal cycle (period between two subsequent slack water times of ebb current).

• left top: value of characteristic number for a single event.
• left bottom: mean value of the characteristic number within the period of data analysis.
• right top: maximum value of the characteristic number within the period of data analysis.
• right bottom: minimum value of the characteristic number within the period of data analysis.

Remark: The mean value is only computed at locations where all events have occurred within the period of data analysis.
